Comparing bone grafts from the skull and hip for maxillary ridge reconstruction

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of bone grafts harvested from the iliac crest versus calvarial bones for reconstructing severely deficient maxillary ridges. It focuses on measuring the radiographic horizontal bone gain achieved with each type of graft. The study addresses the limitations of calvarial grafts, such as their curvature and volume, compared to the more favorable iliac crest grafts. Participants will undergo autogenous bone augmentation to assess which method yields better results in bone reconstruction.

Why it matters

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any previous maxillary reconstructive or dental implant treatment.
* Any local pathologic lesion or systemic disease that would affect the typical pattern of bone healing.
