[Alveolar bone reconstruction with hydroxyapatite in aged humans].
There is a rising need for preprosthetic surgery due to a general increase in life expectancy and the desire for optimal oral rehabilitation. A method of reconstructing residual ridges in an ideal form with a hydroxylapatite-fibrin paste is presented. Patients suffering from mild to moderately severe age-related neurological disorders with dementia and psychomotor slowing benefit from the procedure, whereas psychiatric illnesses such as hypochondria or psychotic disturbances need to be excluded from ridge reconstruction. The same is true for neurological deficits resulting in facial and oral hyperkinesia.
