Quintessence Publishing Vertikale und horizontale Alveolarkammaugmentation: Neue Perspektiven

English bestseller now in German! This book describes the most important aspects of vertical and horizontal alveolar crest augmentation with chapters on surgically relevant anatomy of the oral floor, augmentation in the lower jaw, and the upper anterior tooth area including papilla regeneration. The reconstruction of the highly absorbed upper jaw with guided bone regeneration (GBR) and simultaneous sinus soil augmentation including the application of growth factors BMP-2 and PDGF in conjunction with newly developed perforated membranes is as topic as complications from membrane exposure and the management of the various degrees of graft infections. In special sections of the book, listed case examples are again analyzed and a procedure discussed by which an even better result might have been achieved. The book is a useful companion to the clinical practice of alveolar comb augmentation using GBR. Table of contents Chapter 01. Introduction Chapter 02. Patient and surgical preparation Chapter 03.
