Polydioxanone Dome Technique for Guided Bone Regeneration: Surgical Technique and Results up to 72 Months of Follow-up.

This study aimed to describe the step-by-step procedure of the polydioxanone dome technique associated with guided bone regeneration (GBR) and to report the results up to 72 months after implant loading. Patients with maxillary horizontal bone defects (< 5 mm residual width, confirmed by CBCT scan) were treated with the proposed intervention. During the GBR procedure, four bone perforations were strategically prepared in a roughly square configuration.

Employment of U-Shape Technique at Reentry Surgery for Papillae Coronal Migration on the Rehabilitation of Anterior Single Implant: 3-Year Follow-Up Case Report.

Introduction: The rehabilitation of a maxillary single dental implant represents a great challenge at clinical practice. Harmony among the implant-supported crown and adjacent teeth is required in which concerns pink and white esthetics. The aim of the present case report is to depict a multidisciplinary treatment in which the U-shape flap technique for papillae preservation at second stage surgery was used.
