Guided Bone Regeneration in Lower Posterior Edentulous Arch Using Resorbable or Non Resorbable Membrane.
Sponsor: Beirut Arab University
Summary
the purpose of this study is to compare the efficiency of non-resorbable membrane versus resorbable membrane in guided bone regeneration in atrophic posterior mandible.
Official title: Comparative Evaluation of Resorbable (Pericardium) Versus Non Resorbable (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Membrane for Horizontal Bone Augmentation of Posterior Atrophic Mandible

Interventions
guided bone regeneration using Resorbable membrane pericardium
A resorbable pericardium membrane will be fixed with titanium pins on the lingual bone plate (2-3mm from the bone crest) and on the buccal bone plate allowing for packing of particulate mix of bone graft (50% Xenograft: 50% Autogenous graft). Overfilling of the graft will be respected to compensate for future resorption. The membrane will be stretched over the graft ensuring maximum immobilization of the graft.
guided bone regeneration using non resorbable ptfe membrane
A non-resorbable polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane will be fixed with titanium tacks on the lingual bone plate (2-3mm from the bone crest) and on the buccal bone plate allowing for packing of particulate mix of bone graft (50% Xenograft: 50% Autogenous graft). Overfilling of the graft will be respected to compensate for future resorption.
