Bone graft augmentation and dental implant treatment in a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta: review of the literature with a case report.
This case report with a review of the literature describes a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta who was treated with dental implants. To our knowledge, only one case report has been published in the English dental literature describing implant treatment in the osteogenesis imperfecta patient. The uncertainty in treatment confronted by all clinicians is the density of bone, which is essential for implant survival.
