Alveolar bony defects represent one of the most common problems that face oral
surgeons who practice dental implant placement. This case report describes a
modification of a recent technique that aims to restore a bony defect in the implant
site using a cylindrical bone block autograft taken from the patient’s own chin; then to
make both clinical and radiographic evaluation of the prognosis periodically over six
months postoperatively. The technique was found to be effective and successful as a
treatment option to restore implant site bony defects.
