Clinical Evaluation of Guided Bone Regeneration Using 3D-titanium Membrane and Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin on the Maxillary Anterior Area

The aim of the current study was to evaluate the results of horizontal guided bone regeneration (GBR) with xenograf t (deproteinized bovine bone mineral, DBBM), allograf t (irradiated allogenic cancellous bone and marrow), titanium membrane, resorbable collagen membrane, and advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) in the anterior maxilla. The titanium membrane was used in this study has a three-dimensional (3D) shape that can cover ridge defects. Case 1. A 32-yearold female patient presented with discomfort due to mobility and pus discharge on tooth #11. Three months af ter extracting tooth #11, diagnostic sof tware (R2 GATE diagnostic sof tware, Megagen, Daegu, Korea) was used to establish the treatment plan for implant placement. At the f irst stage of implant surgery, GBR for horizontal augmentation was performed with DBBM (Bio-Oss, Geistlich, Wolhusen, Switzerland), irradiated allogenic cancellous bone and marrow (ICB cancellous, Rocky Mountain Tissue Bank, Denver, USA), 3D-titanium membrane (i-Gen, Megagen, Daegu, Korea), resorbable collagen membrane (Collagen membrane, Genoss, Suwon, Korea), and A-PRF because there was approximately 4 mm labial dehiscence Abstract Case Report
