The use of autogenous bone grafting with platelet-rich plasma for alveolar ridge reconstruction: a clinical report

J Calif Dent Assoc. 2006 Nov;34(11):895-9.

Abstract

Implant dentistry has become an effective and predictable treatment modality in modern dentistry. Patients with missing teeth can benefit from partial or complete tooth replacement. Implants can also be used to improve denture retention, stability and support, and enable improved function and esthetics for patients. Several implant systems are commercially available, and their use is predictable with excellent success rates.
