A group of 31 patients whose mandibles had been augmented surgically with various methods using hydroxylapatite granules between 1984 and 1987, were followed-up to rate their subjective and objective masticatory function. The subjective assessment of the treatment result is comparable to the opinion given about vestibulo- and floor of the mouth-plasty. Masticatory function determined according to the method of fractionated sieving of the chewed food did not show any significant differences from the function measured in complete denture patients with strong alveolar bones. The need for regular follow-up is emphasized.
1984年至1987年间，一组31例患者通过不同方法使用羟基磷灰石颗粒进行了下颌骨手术增容，并对其主观和客观咀嚼功能进行了随访评估。治疗结果的主观评估与关于前庭和口底成形术的评价相当。根据咀嚼食物分级筛分法测定的咀嚼功能与牙槽骨强壮的全口义齿患者所测功能相比，未显示出任何显著差异。强调了定期随访的必要性。
