The giant-cell central reparative granuloma, unlike other giant-cell neoplasias, is mainly found in maxillary bones, particularly in the mandible. We report a patient study of giant-cell central reparative granuloma in the mandible extending from dental elements 34 to 44. The patient underwent excision of a neoplasm and reconstruction of the mandible via an autologous bone graft of the iliac crest. To restore fully, functionally, and aesthetically the masticatory apparatus after verification of graft stability, four osseointegrated implants were fixed, and an "overdenture" prosthesis was then applied, thus finally solving the problem.

Abstract
The giant-cell central reparative granuloma, unlike other giant-cell neoplasias, is mainly found in maxillary bones, particularly in the mandible. We report a patient study of giant-cell central reparative granuloma in the mandible extending from dental elements 34 to 44. The patient underwent excision of a neoplasm and reconstruction of the mandible via an autologous bone graft of the iliac crest. To restore fully, functionally, and aesthetically the masticatory apparatus after verification of graft stability, four osseointegrated implants were fixed, and an "overdenture" prosthesis was then applied, thus finally solving the problem.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
