Abstract:
Objective:To discuss the key points of implant restoration on folded fibular graft for mandibular defect.
Methods:Fifteen patients with mandibular ameloblastoma were treated by segmental resection of the mandible.The mandibular defect was reconstructed with vascularized folded fibular graft. Implant restoration on the graft was conduced 6-9 months after operation.The results were evaluated.
Results:All patients had no tenderness in the temporomandibular joint region. The mouth opening reached 3.1-3.9 cm and the occlusion relationship was good. There was no obvious abnormality in masticatory and swallowing function. After 12-48 months of follow-up, the implants were all survived.
Conclusions:The application of folded fibula for both mandible defect repair and postoperative implant restoration could achieve satisfactory results in restoration of the facial appearance and physiological function of oral cavity.
