With each passing decade, more research is done on GBR, and more surgeons begin adopting this practice with incredible results. In this new edition, Daniel Buser has assembled a team of the top names in implant surgery to put together a comprehensive guide on the materials, indications, techniques, timing, and results of GBR. The book begins with the science of bone regeneration before delving into the different methods and uses of GBR based on the presenting scenario. Case examples are presented with photos and radiographs documenting each patient’s bone regeneration from start to finish. From those who want to begin offering implants to a wider range of patients to GBR veterans who want to refine their skills, this book is perfect for anyone who works with dental implants.
