About this trial
The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the horizontal bone gain when grafting a bone substitute with non fixed resorbable collagen membranes (control group), versus fixed resorbable collagen membranes (test group) in resorbed ridges requiring Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) to facilitate implant placement at 6 months.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Men and women over 18 years old or older
Patients requiring Guided Bone Regeneration due to insufficient ridge width(≤5mm) to place dental implants, with sufficient vertical ridge height (≥9mm) from vital anatomical structures (the inferior alveolar nerve in the Mandible, or the sinus in the Maxilla)
One or more teeth missing in posterior zone (Premolars, and Molars)
Absence of active Periodontal disease
Disqualifiers
Patients with sufficient ridge width (>5 mm) and height (≥9mm) from vital anatomical structure) requiring no GBR to place dental implants
Patients with severe horizontal and vertical defects requiring other surgical techniques.
Long-term non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy (3months).
Lactating females or currently pregnant women.
Trial design
Treatments tested in this trial
- Horizontal GBR with the use of non-resorbable pins for the stabilization of the collagen membrane
- Horizontal GBR without the use of non-resorbable pins for the stabilization of the collagen membrane
