ABSTRACT
Clinical challenges remain in augmentation of anterior maxillary alveolar bone deficiencies prior to endosseous implant implantation. Significant bone loss frequently occurs simultaneously with the traumatic loss of maxillary anterior teeth in the past. Reconstructing the original hard tissue form as closely as feasible is the goal of augmentation. This is necessary in order for the dental implants to be positioned optimally later on. Autogenous bone has long been considered the “gold standard” for bone grafting applications in implant treatment. Zygoma being the strongest bone was chosen as the doner site for autologous bone graft which was then mixed with xenograft and placed at the implant sites after placement of implant. In addition to aiding in the life of implants, autologous bone grafts taken from the zygomatic buttress are suitable for reconstructing bony alveolar crest abnormalities in the anterior maxillary region.
Key words: Autogenous bone graft, Xenograft, Zygomatic Buttress, Implant.
