Inadequate prosthetic rehabilitation caused by fibrous and bone hyperplasia of maxilla: Case report

Abstract

Normal bone healing after tooth extraction includes the following steps: blood clot forming, granulation, bone forming and final bone reorganization. In clinical settings connective tissue infiltration of extraction socket can result in fibrous scar formation rather than bone healing. Local and systemic factors seem to be major contributors to the occurrence of erratic socket healing. The aim of this case report was to describe oral-surgery treatment of a patient with inadequate bone and soft supportive tissue for prosthetic rehabilitation. Surgical procedure and recovery are presented, including final complete denture rehabilitation
