INTRODUCTION: The fibula-free flap has traditionally been utilized to perform dental rehabilitation following maxillectomy. The purpose of this study is to present our experience with dental implantation of the scapula-tip-free flap in midface reconstruction.
METHODS: Fifteen adult patients underwent midface reconstruction with dental implantation using the scapula tip between January 2013 and December 2023. Implant success was defined as maintenance of the implant after 6 months of healing with associated functional prosthetic rehabilitation.
RESULTS: A total of 35 implants were placed into 15 scapula-free flaps. There were four implant failures (11.4%) that occurred in three patients (20%) during the study period resulting in an overall implant success rate of 88.6% with a median follow-up period of 2.8 years. All patients were restored with a removable implant overdenture.
CONCLUSION: Dental implantation can be achieved in the scapula tip following maxillectomy with a high degree of success.
