Implant placement with guided bone regeneration in the maxillary aesthetic zone - A case report with 3 years of follow up
نویسندگان
چکیده
The placement of implants in a prosthetically driven position depends on the quantity and quality of available bone especially in the anterior region of maxilla. Implant placement and its restoration becomes clinically challenging when the alveolar ridge lacks sufficient bone volume. Additional surgical procedures are required to augment the bone deficiency in such clinical situations. Advanced procedures such as guided bone regeneration provides a conducive environment for successful placement of implants, where non-osseous cells are inhibited and osteoblast derived from the periosteum and the bones are induced to form new bone. This article presents a case report of simultaneous approach of guided bone regeneration and implant placement in the maxillary anterior with narrow ridge defect. After six months of healing period implant was aesthetically restored.

Guided bone regeneration: A literature review
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 ...

AIM This study aimed to report a well-succeeded use of equine enzyme-deantigenic cortical membrane and bone granules for guided bone regeneration (GBR) in the esthetic zone concomitant with implant placement. BACKGROUND In the anterior maxilla, where patients typically have the highest expectations for implant-supported restorations, bone resorption in the wake of tooth loss often leads to a ...
متن کاملMinimal guided bone regeneration procedure for immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone
The anterior maxilla presents a challenging milieu interior for ideal placement of implants because of the compromised bone quality. With the advent of intraoral bone harvesting and augmentation techniques, immediate implant placement into fresh extraction sockets have become more predictable. Immediate implant placement has numerous advantages compared to the delayed procedure including superi...
متن کاملUsing Absorbable Gelatin Sponge to Facilitate Sinus Membrane Elevation during Open Sinus Lift: Technical Notes and Case Series
Ridge atrophy accompanied by the pneumatization of maxillary sinus in the maxillary posterior region may lead to inadequate bone height, thereby precluding implant placement. Therefore, it may be mandatory to perform a sinus membrane elevation procedure and augmentation in the bone. The present study aimed to introduce a novel modification method for sinus floor elevation using a gelatin sponge...
متن کاملThe Immediate Aesthetic and Functional Restoration of Maxillary Incisors Compromised by Periodontitis Using Short Implants with Single Crown Restorations: A Minimally Invasive Approach and Five-Year Follow-Up
The functional and aesthetic restoration of teeth compromised due to aggressive periodontitis presents numerous challenges for the clinician. Horizontal bone loss and soft tissue destruction resulting from periodontitis can impede implant placement and the regeneration of an aesthetically pleasing gingival smile line, often requiring bone augmentation and mucogingival surgery, respectively.
