About this video
Advancements in material science have enhanced the predictability of Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR), yet vertical ridge augmentation (VRA) remains complex, particularly in the posterior mandible due to soft tissue management challenges. Precise surgical execution is essential to prevent complications such as excessive bleeding or neurosensory disturbances. This video provides a step-by-step demonstration of vertical augmentation using titanium mesh, GBR with xenograft material saturated in PRP, and coverage with PPP and a resorbable membrane. After six months, the titanium mesh was removed, implants were placed, and implant uncovering was performed six months post-implantation. A panoramic view of the final prosthetic restoration is presented.

Ridge Preservation and 3D Augmentation Following Failed Implant Removal
A two-step augmentation approach after failed implant removal:
Ridge Preservation Following Removal of Infected Failed Implants, with Secondary Vertical Augmentation Using Autologous Onlay Bone Grafting (AOBG) in the Posterior Mandible
A comprehensive treatment approach for managing chronic infection and severe bone loss in the posterior mandible due to failed implants. The protocol includes immediate ridge preservation with xenograft material (GBR), followed by vertical augmentation using autologous onlay bone grafting, and a final stage of implant placement with connective tissue grafting.
