[Application of granulate hydroxylapatite for mandibular augmentation]. 1989

S Sotiriadou, and E Fischer-Brandies, and E Dielert

The already known surgical interventions for absolute induction of extensive mandibular atrophy, cannot be suggested as routine standardized methods. Use of Hydroxylapatite-ceramic for restoration of the atrophic alveolar process, shows several advantages; among those, simplicity of the operation use of local anesthesia, as well as very low percentage of unsuccessful interventions are taken into consideration. The clinical results of 102 cases are shown and discussed. Through the addition of H.A. ceramic in the field of preprosthetic surgery, there is a broadening of the spectrum of the therapeutic possibilities of patients with prosthetic problems to be expected.

D006882	Hydroxyapatites	A group of compounds with the general formula M10(PO4)6(OH)2, where M is barium, strontium, or calcium. The compounds are the principal mineral in phosphorite deposits, biological tissue, human bones, and teeth. They are also used as an anticaking agent and polymer catalysts.
