[Guided bone regeneration for single tooth replacements by oral implants].
Single tooth replacement is a good indication for an oral implant. However, bone regeneration, is often required to improve the bone quantity and the contour of the overlying soft tissues. Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) using membranes is a good technique to restore local bone defects within a six months period. With this technique it is crucial that a membrane properly separates the bony and soft tissues and creates a space around a bony defect for bone ingrowth. This article describes the indications and contra-indications for GBR, the technique and the possible complications.
