[Mandibular distraction osteogenesis and dental rehabilitation by osseointegrated implants. A case report] ].
The authors report a case of mandibular reconstruction by distraction osteogenesis. The patient presented an interrupting mandibular defect secondary to a gunshot injury. The distraction osteogenesis permitted the reconstruction of the mandible without bone grafts or flaps. The attached gingiva on the alveolar ridge was also recreated by the distraction and allowed a dental rehabilitation by osseointegrated implants.
