šŸ“¢ Today’s the day! Join us live tonight as Jochen Tunkel shares key takeaways on Autologous Bone Grafting: Shell or Block?

What will be covered:

• Surgical complexity: Full block grafting is easier and faster.
• Resorption rates: The shell technique has a much lower resorption rate.
• Biologic integration: Regeneration is faster in shells.
• Complications: The complication rate is slightly lower with the shells, and after a complication, you can usually insert the implant.
• Amount of augmented volume: A higher volume can be augmented with split blocks than with full blocks using the same size of harvesting.
• Vertical limitations: According to the literature, the vertical limit for full blocks is about 3–4 mm; is there a limit for the shell technique?

šŸ’¬Don’t miss the opportunity to ask your questions live and take part in the conversation with Jochen Tunkel!
