T
he increase in the average age of our patients and the
increasing aesthetic and functional demand, will increasingly
lead the dentists to handle complex cases. The complex cases
are those in which, due to the loss of compromised teeth or
previously placed implants, there is a lack of hard and soft
tissues, which can often preclude the possibility of giving the
patient a fixed dentition. To solve these bone atrophy, and in order
to place future implants, several methods have been proposed in
the literature, including block grafts, osteodistraction and guided
bone regeneration (GBR). The latter is probably the one that has
recently met the greatest interest from dentists, thanks to its
low invasiveness and flexibility. Furthermore, compared to the
other techniques, the GBR allows to reconstruct the hard tissues
also contextually to the implant insertion, allowing to optimize
the aesthetics and the function. In my lecture, a classification
of the main bone defects will be reviewed, and some step by
step protocols will be proposed to solve the clinical cases in a
predictable way.
