Abstract We report the histological evaluation of an individualized allogeneic bone block 5 years after alveolar ridge augmentation. The biopsy showed a well‐vascularized lamellar bone with fatty incorporations without any avital allograft remnants. The presence of osteocytes, lining cells, macrophages, and blood vessels indicated a healthy and vital bone tissue.
