Abstract
Reconstructive preprosthetic surgery is, amongst others, aimed at the creation of an environment which is favourable to the construction of an implant supported prosthesis. Not in all cases the pre-existent volume of bone is sufficient to place an implant in the planned position. In this paper various techniques to augment local bone defects for reliable implant placement are described.
