Bone defects of the jaws: moving from reconstruction to regeneration

Abstract: Jaw reconstruction is necessary for a variety of reasons including neoplastic disease, traumatic injuries, infective/inflammatory lesions, and congenital defects. Such defects can be a significant handicap for patients leading to physiological and psychological morbidity. Maxillofacial bone reconstruction remains challenging for the reconstructive surgeon; yet it has evolved significantly over recent years. The current state of the art reconstruction is via the use of vascularized osseous flaps. Modern develop… Show more

“…This deficiency is due to several reasons, the most important of which are periodontal tissue diseases, cysts, and severe surgical trauma during extraction. 1 Several techniques have been described to compensate for and speed up the healing of defective bone for the purpose of placing dental implants or avoiding fracture or deformation of the bone. 2 Xenografts, such as inorganic bovine bone grafts, have been widely used to achieve three-dimensional healing of the maxillary bone in the field of repair of defects and alveolar resorption in several studies.…”

“…To prevent the development of severe bone resorption and provide an adequate bone height and width for successive implant rehabilitation, numerous surgical techniques have been proposed, such as alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) or guided bone regeneration procedures (GBR) [ 3 ].…”
