This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of lateral ridge augmentation in 36 patients with severely atrophic alveolar ridge using allogeneic bone grafts in a framework technique. A thinned allogeneic cortical graft was screwed to the alveolar ridge, leaving a hollow space that was filled with particulated allogeneic cortical bone. Thirty-six patients who received surgical lateral block augmentation using allogeneic bone grafts were involved in this study. Implants were placed in a second session after a mean time of 6.3 months. The surgical technique and the reasons for failure of surgery in three patients are described. Additionally, properties of allogeneic bone grafts are reviewed. In 33 patients, dental implants were successfully installed and continued to be well maintained at the last follow-up (91.7% success). In three patients, dental implants could not be installed (8.3% failure) as the graft was lost because of wound dehiscence; however, repeat surgery was successfully carried out in all three. The use of allogeneic bone grafts in lateral ridge augmentation of the maxilla and mandible showed successful clinical results. It seems to be a reliable material for reconstructing a severely atrophic alveolar ridge. It presents a good alternative to autogenous bone regarding augmentation because it offers good ossification, less morbidity, unlimited availability and shorter duration of surgery, and lower costs.
