Tooth shell technique: A proof of concept with the use of autogenous dentin block grafts

Abstract: Background: Autogenous bone block graft is considered the gold standard for lateral bony defects. Dentin has been identified to be a suitable autogenous bone graft material due to its structural and chemical similarities to the alveolar bone. Methods: This proof of concept study describes the clinical application of the tooth shell technique in 24 sites with 27 implants of 22 patients. A tooth shell was fixed laterally to the defect with microscrews. Distance between the shell and the residual bone was filled … Show more

“…It has been assumed that AUG do not cause further costs such as bone substitutes or allografts. In full-cost accounting, this must be critically discussed since AUG are associated with a potential donor site morbidity leading to indirect health costs such as prolonged treatment or even hospitalization time (e.g., due to iliac crest harvesting) [ 7 , 8 ]. Further limitations of AUG are an increased resorption rate and a limited availability [ 8 , 9 ].…”

Further limitations of AUG are an increased resorption rate and a limited availability [ 8 , 9 ]. Next, surgery time is often prolonged that might be associated with further costs and an increased infection risk [ 10 ].…”

“…Thus, re-entry at the 4th month is safe and time-saving for clinical treatment. Though TS augmentation allows for simultaneous dental implantation [39,40], high risks of complications will occur, especially graft exposure. Graft exposure also happens during AB grafting and it will result in incomplete integration of graft, graft resorption and host site infection.…”

“…This important property of autologous bone is an advantage for the restoration of complex volume defects, which secures it the designation of gold standard [ 8 ]. Dentin has similar properties due to its structural similarity to the inorganic matrix and behaves in the same way [ 9 , 10 , 11 ]. This quality characteristic makes the careless discarding of the biological material of extracted teeth seem increasingly questionable.…”
