Published in: Clinical case reports (2023)
This report documents the clinical and histological outcome of 3D-printed calcium phosphate blocks placed in two-stage procedures to successfully rehabilitate atrophic alveolar ridges. This approach yielded a functionally favorable result. Histological evaluations were performed after healing periods of 6 months and showed ongoing bone regeneration and sprouting capillaries.
