Computer-assisted bone augmentation, implant planning and placement: An in vitro investigation.

Within the limitations of this in vitro study, it can be concluded that customised block grafts fabricated through CBCT, computer-assisted design and 3D printing allow alveolar ridge augmentation with clinically acceptable predictability and reproducibility. Computer-assisted implant planning and placement can be performed simultaneously with computer-assisted block grafting leading to clinically non-relevant dislocation of block grafts.
