Clinical case:<\/strong> In this article we will see the evolution of a 23-year-old patient who comes to the clinic showing mandibular swelling in the right side due to a tumour that expands both corticals invading soft tissues. Reconstruction is subsequently performed with an iliac crest graft and later graft distraction with four MGU distractors from Mozo-Grau, achieving an increase in height and width of 10.8 mm<\/p>\n Result:<\/strong> Young patient who underwent oral tumour excision, leaving a minimal jaw segment for support. Distraction of the hip grafts is performed later, followed by the implant-supported restoration. With the patient at no time presenting visible aesthetic deformation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","medio-publicacion":[7130],"tematica-publicacion":[],"class_list":["post-177","estudios-medicos","type-estudios-medicos","status-publish","hentry","medio-publicacion-gaceta-dental-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
