Abstract: Objective　To evaluate the clinical outcome of bone grafts in combination with dental implants in jaw defects caused by tumor or trauma. Methods　From 2007 to 2012, 11 cases of jaw defects caused by trauma or tumor resection were reconstructed by bone grafts combined with dental implants. Function and esthetics of the patients were followed up and evaluated. Results　All the bone survived after bone grafts. Forty-one implants were embedded and all succeeded except 2 cases involving 4 implants that suffered from implant gingivitis. All the other cases received excellent function and maxilla-facial figure. Conclusions　Functional reconstruction by bone grafts in combination with dental implants is effective for patients with jaw defects. Transplant of keratinized gingiva around the implants may help the implants adapt friction and maintain the health of peri-implant mucosa.
