Evaluating Bone Grafting Success in Maxillofacial Surgery Among Patients With Oral Mucosal Diseases: A Prospective Cohort Study
The prevalence of underlying OMDs was found to be associated with reduced success of bone grafts; after adjustment, failure was primarily linked to the use of immunosuppressive therapy and poor glycemic control. Successful perioperative screening, optimized metabolic management, and immunosuppressive management contribute to better outcomes.
