RESUMO
Placement of an endosseous implant requires sufficient bone volume for complete bone coverage. There is a growing use of intraoral block bone grafts from intraoral sources. The use of bone from the mandibular symphysis, retromolar area, mandibular ramus, and the maxillary tuberosity can serve as a good treatment alternative for alveolar ridge augmentation with a high success rate for long span augmentation, up to complete jaw augmentation or extensive bone reconstruction. The intraoral block bone graft procedure can be combined with other surgical procedures, such as sinus lift elevation or nasal floor elevation.
