Early Implant Loading in Severely Resorbed Maxilla Using Xenograft, Autograft, and Platelet-Rich Plasma in 97 Patients
We studied the reconstruction of the maxilla with the simultaneous placement of International Team for Implantology (ITI) implants with the combined use of a small amount of intraoral autogenous bone providing the necessary viable stem cells, and a larger amount of xenogenic bone used as a scaffold and a purely autologous platelet concentrate providing the growth factors for optimal bone formation.
