A randomized controlled clinical multicenter trial comparing the clinical and histological performance of a new, modified polylactide?co?glycolide acid membrane to an expanded polytetrafluorethylene membrane in guided bone regeneration procedures

ConclusionPeri?implant GBR was successfully performed using either of the membranes. The control membrane was able to better maintain the horizontal thickness of regenerated bone and revealed less soft tissue complications. No statistically valid evidence about the superiority of one membrane was found in any other parameters. Soft tissue dehiscences occur with both types of membranes and can impair the amount of regenerated bone. (Source: Clinical Oral Implants Research)
