Abstract

The survival of implants depends on the quantity and quality of bone around the implant. This lecture describes harvesting techniques and the effective use of ramus, tibia and iliac crest bones to increase the quality and quantity bone for implant site preparation in an office setting. Case selection will be discussed to improve success rate of the grafts and minimize morbidity of the donor sites. This lecture presents four key points for more predictable and successful bone grafting. A review of bone healing physiology will enable the clinician use autogenous bone more effective and maximize the graft volume maintenance. This lecture discusses when, where and how to use cancellous, cortical and corticocancellous bones. Instruments requirement and techniques of harvesting ramus, tibia and iliac crest will be discussed in details. Technology that makes harvesting bone simpler will be discussed.
