Sumario:Dental implants are highly recommended to improve the retention, stability, and support of prostheses in edentulous patients with large surgical defects. Depending on the size of the defect, a bone graft procedure might be necessary. However, due to limitations of bone grafts, some complications might negatively affect the prosthetic rehabilitation of the patient. This case report presents some of these prosthetic problems following surgical resection and autogenous bone graft procedures.
