Best Block Graft Technique?
Last Updated: Aug 28, 2006
Dr. Mongkuk asks:
I am treatment planning a dental implant case in which I will be replacing a mandibular second premolar, first molar and second molar. I think I need to do a block graft.
How can I best avoid traumatizing the mental nerve? My flap will be extending to the mental nerve area. What is the best technique for doing this kind of graft?
