Dental implants revolutionized the treatment options for restoring form, function, and
esthetics when one or more teeth are missing. At sites of insufficient bone, guided bone …

Bone augmentation procedures are frequent today in implant patients, since an implant
should be circumferentially anchored in bone at completion of bone healing to have a good …

Bone‐regenerative interventions aiming to restore deficient alveolar ridges, such as the use
of block grafts or through the application of guided bone‐regeneration principles, have …

Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is commonly used in combination with the installment of
titanium implants. The application of a membrane to exclude non‐osteogenic tissues from …

The key factors that are needed for bone regeneration to take place include cells
(osteoprogenitor and immune‐inflammatory cells), a scaffold (blood clot) that facilitates the …

Collagen, the most abundant extracellular matrix protein in animal kingdom belongs to a
