ALVES, Raoni Terramar Casado et al. Intraoral autogenous bone grafts in implantology: a retrospective study. Rev. cir. traumatol. buco-maxilo-fac. [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.4, pp. 09-16. ISSN 1808-5210.

Alveolar bone undergoes a physiological resorption process after tooth extraction, creating difficulties for the insertion of dental implants, but reconstructive procedures enable the correct installation of implants. This study aims to evaluate autogenous bone grafts harvested from intraoral donor sites in order to assess their effectiveness in relation to implant osseointegration. This was a retrospective observational descriptive study based on data collected from medical records. The donor sites evaluated were the mandibular ramus (54.17%) and the chin region (43.75%). It was observed that of 98 implants inserted, 97.96% were successful and continued to function. Inlay grafts were used in 56.25% of cases and onlay ones in 43.75%. Postoperative complications were observed in 22.91% of cases, the most frequent of which was paresthesia. Ninety-five percent of patients reported they were satisfied with their rehabilitation over implants and 97.50% would be willing to undergo a similar surgical procedure involving bone reconstruction if necessary. The study showed a high success rate of implants in the graft areas, thereby characterizing such reconstructions as a low-risk factor for osseointegration.
