About this study

Official title: Rehabilitation of Alveolar Horizontal Bone Deficiencies Using Autogenous Onlay Bone Grafting With Simultaneous Implant Placement: A Novel Approach

This retrospective observational study evaluated the clinical outcomes of simultaneous implant placement with horizontal ridge augmentation using autogenous mandibular ramus block grafts. Sixteen patients were treated between January 2018 and March 2025. Clinical and radiological data were analyzed to assess implant survival, osseointegration, and graft incorporation.

Read the detailed description

Horizontal alveolar bone deficiency is a significant challenge in implant rehabilitation. Traditional staged augmentation techniques prolong treatment time and increase morbidity. This study introduces a novel approach in which autogenous mandibular ramus block grafts were used to reconstruct buccal walls simultaneously with implant placement. Sixteen patients received 23 implants. Outcomes included implant survival, osseointegration success, bone healing, and complications during a mean follow-up of 30.6 months.

Being tested
utogenous mandibular ramus block grafting with simultaneous dental implant placement, Autogenous mandibular ramus block graft with simultaneous implant placement

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • utogenous mandibular ramus block grafting with simultaneous dental implant placementProcedure or surgery

    Horizontal alveolar ridge augmentation performed using autogenous block grafts harvested from the mandibular ramus. The graft was fixed to reconstruct the buccal wall, followed by immediate placement of dental implants in the same surgical session. Prosthetic loading was initiated 4 months postoperatively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Alveolar Bone Loss and Tooth Loss / Rehabilitation, run by Akdeniz University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

implant survival rate (time frame: 4 months post-surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Oct 2025.
