Abstract:

Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a reconstructive procedure of alveolar ridge using membranes. This procedure is indicated when there is no sufficient bone for implantation, or in the case of optimal implant installation for esthetic or functional needs. GBR can be performed before implant placement, when there is not enough bone for initial stability of implants and less predictable outcomes (staged approach), or performed simultaneously with implantation (combined approach). GBR techniques have been used for vertical and horizontal ridge augmentations with acceptable results. This literature review discusses the background, principles of GBR, the materials used in GBR (types of membranes and bone grafts), success criteria and long term results of GBR.

Mechanisms of Guided Bone Regeneration: A Review

Post-extraction crestal bone resorption is common and unavoidable which can lead to significant ridge dimensional changes. To regenerate enough bone for successful implant placement, Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is often required. GBR is a surgical procedure that uses barrier membranes with or without particulate bone grafts or/and bone substitutes. There are two approaches of GBR in implant ...

Guided tissue regeneration membranes for periodontal regeneration--a literature review.

Guided tissue regeneration materials were reviewed in this paper and can be categorized as non-resorbable and bioabsorbable. Both materials have been used extensively in periodontal regeneration with no difference in the clinical outcome. Selection of barrier material depends on resorbability, size of the defect, morphology of the defect, operator preference and patient acceptance.

Bone regeneration in dentistry using bioactive glass 49S :A review

Background and Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of 49S bioactive glass nanoparticles made by sol-gel technique on bone regeneration in dentistry. These glass are especially used as bone repair materials because of their properties such as biodegradability and bioactivity, so they seem to be successful in orthopedic and dental surgery. Material and Methods: Acoording to this...

Guided Tissue Regeneration: A Review

The objective of tis sue replacement is to recreate or regenerate the loss or damaged structure and to mimic as closely as possible the original form and function. The grafting material should be biocompatible to the host receiving the graft at the hard and soft tissue interfaces [1]. The host tissue has a potential for damage and rejection of the graft. The clinician must determine the objecti...

Bioresorbable Collagen Membranes for Guided Bone Regeneration

Localized lack of bone volume in the jaws may be due to congenital, post-traumatic, postsurgical defects or different disease processes. Increasing the bone volume has long been an attractive field of basic and clinical research. The introduction of implant therapy, and the proven relationship between long-term prognosis of dental implants and adequate bone volume at the implant site (Lekholm e...
