Bone Grafts Used In Implant Surgeries For Vertical Alveolar Augmentation-A Literature Review

Implant directly depends on the bony plateform for its long standing stability and retension. Most of the failures of implant could be due to the bone resorption and soft tissue inflammation caused by the various systemic and local factors. When in case of pathologic bony deficiency in alveolar bone grafts augmentation is necessary to increase alveolar vertical dimension following agents are essential and they are guided bone graft augmentation, on lay block grafting, interposition alveolar bone graft, alveolar distraction osteogenesis, iliac corticocancellous augmentation bone graft, and the sinus bone graft.
