Abstract
Successful implant treatment requires prosthetically driven placement of an implant, primary stability at placement, and careful living bone management. The resorptive changes of alveolar bone are an inevitable process following tooth loss, periodontal disease or trauma which causes bone defects. This results in various aesthetic and functional complications such as soft tissue recession, infection and inflammation. Various methods have been tried and advocated for augmenting these bone deficiencies. Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is a successful modality for bone augmentation with a wide range of indications and helps restore the alveolar ridge dimensions. It utilises the principle of Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) for space maintenance within a bony defect. Different types of barrier membranes are being utilised along with various bone grafts in GBR. Thorough knowledge regarding the biology of bone is required before the initiation of any bone augmentation procedure. A combination of Collagen Membrane (CM) and graft material was found successful for GBR. Hence, this review focuses on presentation of best available evidence for various aspects of GBR.
