Abstract
Odontogenic cysts can lead to bone destruction that can hamper the dental implant placement in the ideal 3D position. Different biomaterials and techniques that allow bone regeneration are described in the literature, each with its advantages and disadvantages. This clinical case with 18 months of follow-up aims to show the enucleation of an odontogenic cyst following the guided bone regeneration with the fence technique, which allows the placement of the dental implants in the ideal 3D position, reducing morbidity and the number of surgeries. It involved a fifty-year-old male patient with a cyst in the second sextant who needed implant rehabilitation. During the first surgery, the odontogenic cyst (proven by histological analysis where there was reported a non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium) was enucleated and a guided bone regeneration using the fence technique was performed. The fence technique combines the xenograft, the collagen membrane and an osteosynthesis plate that is molded and fixed to the intervention area to ensure sufficient space for bone tissue regeneration. After six months, two dental implants were placed in the region of tooth 11 and 21, then rehabilitated nine weeks later. The fence technique guaranteed the recovery of the bone morphology and the placement of the dental implants in the ideal 3D position. This technique allows for the handling of complex cases, avoiding the need of autologous bone.
