Concentrated growth factors (CGFs) can be used to enhance wound healing. This case report describes a short-term effect of CGF grafting followed by implant placement in a cystic bony defect within the mandible. Healing conditions were monitored by 2 implant-related surgeries, radiographs, and a microcomputed topography examination. Continuous increase of radiopacity in radiographs was noticed till 6 months after grafting. Bone core specimen was taken at 3.5 months after grafting, and percent bone volume reached 32.7% analyzed by microcomputed topography. In conclusion, the present case showed bone regeneration in the cystic bony defect grafted by CGFs alone.
