Recent Findings in Tissue Engineering Described by Researchers from University of Bern (Guided Bone Regeneration In Implant Dentistry: Basic Principle, Progress Over 35 Years, and Recent Research Activities).

A recent study conducted by researchers from the University of Bern in Switzerland explores the use of guided bone regeneration (GBR) in implant dentistry. GBR is a surgical technique that utilizes barrier membranes and bone fillers to promote bone healing and stability in implant patients. The study reflects 35 years of development and progress with GBR, including advancements in surgical techniques, selection criteria for different approaches, and efforts to reduce surgical trauma and patient morbidity. The research concludes by discussing some remaining questions related to GBR. This study provides valuable insights for those interested in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in the field of dentistry. [Extracted from the article]
