Summary
This study tested a new method to rebuild bone in the upper front jaw for dental implants. Researchers used custom-made donor bone blocks, designed with computer software, to support immediate implant placement. Twenty patients with bone loss from previous failed implants were treated. The study measured bone gain and implant success over 18 months.
