Managing vertical atrophies using advanced GBR procedures

Description

Internationale lezing op initiatief van de afdeling Parodontologie en Orale Implantologie.

Dental implants have been successfully implemented as a routine therapeutic approach in partially and fully edentulous patients. Alveolar defects compromise the “prosthetically-driven” dental implant positioning, unless a detailed planning is performed prior to the surgical phase. Many techniques have been described to augment alveolar bone, including autogenous block grafts, titanium mesh, distraction osteogenesis, guided bone regeneration, etc.

The use of Guided Bone Regeneration associated to non-autogenous scaffolds constitutes the standard of care of bone augmentation in all alveolar defects with or without implants, including the most severe vertical deficiencies. Choosing the correct therapeutic approach with the appropriate biomaterials is a fundamental player to achieve success in advanced GBR procedures.

De organisatie gebeurt voorlopig nog door NTUGent. Meer info over deze studiedag kan u hier vinden.
