The ‘Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) Effect’ of Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) with the Use of Bone Lamina: A Report of Three Cases with More than 36 Months of Follow-Up
Source abstract
Abstract
The world of dentistry knows the benefits and results of guided bone regeneration. One of the most successful techniques introduced a decade ago utilizes, as a barrier membrane, a sheet made of collagenated xenograft called bone lamina. Indications and applications with different surgical techniques have been well described by several authors. This technique not only presents a very low degree of complications, but also has some added benefits that this article will highlight. The so called ‘GTR effect’ means that the GBR not only reproduces the required bone volume for placing implants, but also improves attachment levels on the teeth adjacent to the augmented area. Bone lamina produces both GBR and GTR effects.
