Popis: Summary A follow-up study on 41 patients who had augmentation of the atrophic mandible by interposed bone graft is presented. Special emphasis has been put on the prosthetic implications. The rapid reduction in height measured postoperatively appeared almost to cease after 6 months. Some of the possible causes of this phenomenon are discussed.
