Involving 79 patients (118 implants), the study measured labial horizontal bone width and vertical dimensions using cone beam computed tomography scans taken immediately after surgery and at 6 months. A generalized linear mixed model analyzed potential influencing factors: age, sex, implant site, timing of placement, buccal bone width at the implant platform level post-surgery, implant connection, and bone defect morphology. Significant bone resorption was noted at 6 months. The statistical analysis revealed that buccal bone width at the implant platform, implant connection, and bone defect morphology significantly impacted labial bone resorption, while patient age, sex, timing of placement, and implant site did not. Implants with a buccal bone width ≥2 mm showed significantly less labial horizontal and vertical bone resorption (horizontal P < 0.001, vertical P = 0.001), and healing abutments reduced resorption compared to cover screws (horizontal P = 0.002, vertical P = 0.034).

A scoping review was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines using the PubMed, Embase, and Wiley Online Library electronic resources. Analysis of the various midfacial resection classifications identified in the search revealed common parameters including anatomical landmarks, the walls removed, and the presence of oroantral communication, as well as an accompanying algorithm and options for reconstruction.
