Prélèvement osseux tibial pour comblement osseux maxillaire en implantologie

Tibial bone harvesting is an alternative technique that can be chosen in cases with large bone defects. This tibial graft can be recommended because of its low morbidity, the quality of the bone and the short time duration of the procedure. Some details must be pointed out. A medial tibial surgical approach is for us better than a lateral approach because of its lower morbidity and because the bone is more superficial. The use of a motorized trephine is important to lift precisely the cortical bone window and because it is less traumatic than the hand trephine. The disposable bone aspirator is an excellent option to pick-up bone marrow with a minimum loss of bone material and in a shorter time.
