摘要
To evaluate the dimensional changes after horizontal and vertical guided bone regeneration (GBR) without membrane fixation using the retentive flap technique.This study retrospectively examined two cohorts that received vertical or horizontal ridge augmentations (VA or HA groups). GBR was performed using particulate bone substitutes and resorbable collagen membranes. The augmented sites were stabilized using the retentive flap technique without any additional membrane fixation. The augmented tissue dimensions were assessed using cone-beam computed tomography at preoperative, immediately postoperative (IP), 4 months (4M), and 1 year (1Y).Postoperative vertical bone gain in 11 participants of VA group amounted to 5.96 ± 1.88 mm at IP, which decreased to 5.53 ± 1.62 at 4M and to 5.26 ± 1.52 mm at 1Y (intragroup p < 0.05). The horizontal bone gain at IP in 12 participants amounted to 3.98 ± 2.06 mm, which decreased to 3.02 ± 2.06 at 4M and to 2.48 ± 2.09 mm at 1Y (intragroup p < 0.05). The mean implant dehiscence defect height after 1Y was 0.19 ± 0.50 mm in the VA group, and 0.57 ± 0.93 mm in the HA group.GBR without membrane fixation using the retentive flap technique seems to preserve the radiographic bone dimensions of vertically augmented sites. This technique may be less effective at preserving the width of the augmented tissue.
