ClinConnect Summary

Classical methods of guided bone regenerative methods succeeded to partially reconstitute the lost labial plate of bone using different grafting materials with barrier membranes.

This might be attributed to the necessity of using a full mucoperiosteal flap which interrupts the vascular supply to the bone and jeopardizing the process of total facial bone regenerative process. Therefore, Tan-Chu et al., (2014) described in a case report an innovative technique using resorbable collagen membrane in the shape of ice cream cone and allograft in the reconstitution of labial plate in patients wit...
