Principles of Guided Bone Regeneration
Adequate bone width and height are critical for short and long-term implant success. This presentation will discuss extraction socket classification and the importance of implant site development. Different techniques for horizontal and vertical ridge augmentation will be discussed. The type of bone grafting materials used in ridge augmentation will be presented.
Learning Objectives:
Upon the completion of the presentation will
1) Discuss extraction socket presentation and the difference between socket preservation vs. ridge augmentation.
2) Demonstrate horizontal vs. vertical ridge augmentation.
3) Describe the ridge splitting technique for gaining ridge width.
4) Present different bone grafting and biologics used in implant site development.
