Method, devices and articles for conducting subperiosteal minimally invasive aesthetic jaw bone grafting augmentation

A method for reconstruction of a jaw comprising:

• a) selecting a surgical site at which implantable bone material is to be installed;
• b) making at least one incision at a location in a tissue of an individual that is remote from said surgical site;
• c) developing a subperiosteal tunnel from the remote incision leading to the surgical site by detaching the periosteum from the bone surface;
• d) forming a pouch below the periosteum at the surgical site for receiving the implantable bone material;
• e) delivering the implantable bone material at the surgical site by passing the implantable bone material through the remote incision and through the tunnel;
• and
• f) maneuvering the implantable bone material at the surgical site to position the implantable bone material in a desired condition within the pouch between the patient bone and the periosteum;
• g) wherein, when implanting the implantable bone material at the surgical site between the patient bone and the periosteum, the implantable bone material is implanted to directly contact the bone without a membrane therebetween.
