Dental implant placement by means of dynamic navigation following free fibula flap reconstruction for mandibular defect: a case report

doi:10.19438/j.cjoms.2024.05.018

Abstract

Abstract: Dental implant rehabilitation could be considered in patients reconstructed with free fibula flap for mandibular defect. Prosthetically driven implant placement in free fibula flap represents a challenge for the cross triangle section of the fibula, the insufficient bone height and the existence of the internal fixed titanium screw and plate. This paper reported one case reconstructed with free fibula flap for mandibular defect and 4 implants placed in the fibula by means of dynamic navigation, with recovery missing teeth and chewing function.

Key words: Mandibular defect, Fibula flap, Dental implant, Dynamic navigation
