Abstract

Dento-facial rehabilitation is a multi-step procedure that requires skeletal reconstruction, implant insertion, peri-implant soft tissue management, and prosthetic restoration. These different steps require the surgeon to face complications often related to incorrect surgical planning. The authors proposed a review of their experience with the use of fibula free flaps for mandibular and maxillary reconstruction. More specifically, they analyzed all the phases of correct bone management, beginning with flap harvesting up to the final implant-based prosthetic restoration, including implant stability evaluation at long-term follow-up.
