Guided bone regeneration is a well-established technique used for augmentation of deficient alveolar ridges. Predictable regeneration requires both a high level of technical skill and a thorough understanding of underlying principles of wound
healing. This article describes the 4 major biologic principles (i.e., PASS) necessary for predictable bone regeneration: primary wound closure to ensure undisturbed and uninterrupted wound healing, angiogenesis to provide necessary blood supply and undifferentiated mesenchymal cells, space maintenance/
creation to facilitate adequate space for bone ingrowth, and stability of wound and implant to induce blood clot formation and uneventful healing events. In addition, a novel flap design and clinical cases using this principle are presented. (Implant Dent 2006;15:8–17)

Regeneration is the process of renewal and restoration that allows organisms to recover from damage. In the context of periodontal regeneration, it refers to reproducing the lost periodontal complex including cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone. This document discusses various techniques used to achieve periodontal regeneration, including root biomodification using chemicals like citric acid and tetracycline to expose collagen and promote new attachment, use of barrier membranes to prevent epithelial downgrowth and allow selective repopulation of cells, and biodegradable membranes made of collagen or polylactic acid. While regeneration is the goal, often the outcome is repair through replacement of tissues by scar or bone fill.

This document reviews the role of collagen membranes in alveolar bone grafting. It discusses how collagen membranes can be used in conjunction with autogenous bone grafts to reconstruct alveolar cleft defects. Collagen membranes act as a barrier to prevent soft tissue ingrowth and allow bone regeneration to occur without competition from soft tissues. Studies show collagen membranes lead to more new bone formation and less fibrous tissue compared to sites without membranes. The document examines different types of collagen membranes and their properties. In conclusion, using a resorbable collagen membrane with an autogenous bone graft provides superior results for alveolar ridge augmentation.
The document describes a novel surgical technique called nonincised papillae surgical approach (NIPSA) for treating periodontal defects. NIPSA involves making a single horizontal incision in the mucosa away from the marginal tissues to access the defect, leaving the marginal tissues intact. This preserves the integrity of the interdental soft tissues and blood supply. The technique is modified to incorporate connective tissue grafts to treat advanced periodontal defects associated with buccal bone loss. Four case studies demonstrate positive outcomes with reduced pocket depth and clinical attachment gain using NIPSA with connective tissue grafts. The grafts are thought to improve wound stability, prevent soft tissue collapse, and delay epithelial downgrowth to create optimal conditions
SOCKET PRESERVATION TECHNIQUE- A Case Presentation.pptxAshokKp4
This case report describes the use of a combined epithelialized-subepithelial connective tissue graft for socket preservation and ridge preservation after tooth extraction. The socket was grafted with a bone graft material. A connective tissue graft from the palate with an epithelialized layer was adapted to the socket dimensions and sutured into place. This provided primary closure of the socket to prevent bone and soft tissue loss. At follow-up after 6 months, the width and height of the ridge were maintained, demonstrating the effectiveness of this socket preservation technique using a combined soft tissue graft.
This article reports on 5 consecutive cases where unsplinted dental implants were used to successfully retain maxillary overdentures with partial palatal coverage. A total of 25 textured implants were placed with a minimum of 4 implants per patient. After 12-48 months, none of the implants lost osseointegration and marginal bone levels remained stable. Patients were able to maintain soft tissue health around the unsplinted implants and reported being comfortable with the functioning of their maxillary overdentures. The preliminary results suggest that unsplinted implants can successfully retain removable maxillary overdentures with limited palatal coverage.

Parameters for a Success Implant Integration Revisited Part I by Oded BahatOded Bahat
This document discusses parameters for successful integration of implants that are immediately loaded. It reviews 124 published reports on immediate and early loading of implants from surgery up to 3 months postoperatively. About 60 reports described immediately loading implants within 48 hours with various types of restorations, and success rates ranged from 70.8-100%. The document evaluates how 6 known factors that influence osseointegration apply to immediate loading, finding that bone/implant site status and loading conditions appear most diagnostic, while implant design, technique, and finish may positively or negatively affect immediate loading.
This document discusses the use of buccal mucosa grafts in hypospadias repair. It begins with an overview of hypospadias and its increasing prevalence. Buccal mucosa grafts are described as having favorable histological properties for urethral reconstruction, including a thin submucosal layer and enhanced neovascularization compared to other graft types. The use of buccal mucosa grafts was first reported in 1941 but did not gain popularity until the 1990s. Studies since then have demonstrated good outcomes with buccal mucosa grafts in two-stage repairs and for complex cases. The document reviews the evolution and various techniques for using buccal mucosa grafts, including
Reconstructive periodontal therapy
Some of the slides may appear Blank/White/Black, those are the Videos that I added in the presentation.
Kindly Ignore those slides.
This document discusses the necessity of peri-implant keratinized mucosa and surgical techniques for creating it. There is debate around whether keratinized mucosa is necessary for implant health, but it may help with plaque control and prevent inflammation. Two common techniques for creating keratinized mucosa are apically repositioned flaps and free gingival grafts. Free gingival grafts have better predictability but the donor site healing is less comfortable for patients. Healing after free gingival graft placement takes around 12 weeks to be fully complete.
This document describes the periodontal accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) technique.
PAOO combines selective alveolar corticotomy, particulate bone grafting, and orthodontic forces to shorten treatment time. It is based on the regional acceleratory phenomenon where corticotomy leads to temporary demineralization and remodeling of alveolar bone. The technique was developed from earlier corticotomy-facilitated orthodontics. It results in increased alveolar bone width and stability. The document then describes the surgical technique for PAOO, including flap design and corticotomy procedures to provide access for grafting and accelerate orthodontic tooth movement.
This document discusses secondary pre-prosthetic surgical procedures. It describes ideal ridge form for denture wearing and secondary procedures to modify ridges through augmentation or altering relationships.

This document discusses the management of infected non-unions of long bones. It states that bone union requires stable fixation, biological stimulation, and restored function. For infected non-unions, the treatment is to first eliminate the infection through thorough debridement. Several surgical treatment options are then discussed to achieve union, including bone grafting, the induced membrane technique, antibiotic cement, and the Ilizarov method. The induced membrane technique involves creating a membrane through the use of a cement spacer that can later house bone grafts to achieve union.
Simultaneous vertical guided bone regeneration and guided tissue regeneration...threea3a
This clinical case report describes using recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor (rhPDGF-BB) along with autogenous bone and barrier membranes to reconstruct severe alveolar bone defects in the posterior maxilla through simultaneous vertical ridge augmentation and sinus floor elevation. Over 9 months of healing, complete vertical bone regeneration and new attachment to a previously denuded root surface were observed. Three implants were successfully placed and a fixed restoration was provided, demonstrating the potential for rhPDGF-BB to enhance regeneration when combined with standard bone grafting techniques and membranes. However, further controlled studies are needed to fully evaluate the benefits of using rhPDGF-BB for complex reconstruction procedures.

Storyboard on Skin- Innovative Learning (M-pharm) 2nd sem. (Cosmetics)MuskanShingari
Skin is the largest organ of the human body, serving crucial functions that include protection, sensation, regulation, and synthesis. Structurally, it consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer).
1. **Epidermis**: The outermost layer primarily composed of epithelial cells called keratinocytes. It provides a protective barrier against environmental factors, pathogens, and UV radiation.
2. **Dermis**: Located beneath the epidermis, the dermis contains connective tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. It plays a vital role in supporting and nourishing the epidermis, regulating body temperature, and housing sensory receptors for touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
3. **Hypodermis**: Also known as the subcutaneous layer, it consists of fat and connective tissue that anchors the skin to underlying structures like muscles and bones. It provides insulation, cushioning, and energy storage.
Skin performs essential functions such as regulating body temperature through sweat production and blood flow control, synthesizing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and serving as a sensory interface with the external environment.
Maintaining skin health is crucial for overall well-being, involving proper hygiene, hydration, protection from sun exposure, and avoiding harmful substances. Skin conditions and diseases range from minor irritations to chronic disorders, emphasizing the importance of regular care and medical attention when needed.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

The development of nanogold-based cancer therapy could revolutionize oncology by providing a more targeted, less invasive treatment option. This project contributes to the growing body of research aimed at harnessing nanotechnology for medical applications, paving the way for future clinical trials and potential commercial applications.
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, prompting the need for innovative treatment methods. Nanotechnology offers promising new approaches, including the use of gold nanoparticles (nanogold) for targeted cancer therapy. Nanogold particles possess unique physical and chemical properties that make them suitable for drug delivery, imaging, and photothermal therapy.
Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.
2. was noted, whereas in cases with
membrane exposure, an average of
0.56 mm of new bone was noted.
Similar results of a reduced
amount of bone formation subsequent
to membrane exposure have been
reported.11,18-22
Simion et al20
exam-
ined membrane exposure in cases of
GBR at the implant placement. The
investigators found that 99.6% bone
regeneration was obtained around fix-
tures where membrane exposure did
not occur for 6-8 months following
implant placement. In contrast, only
48.6% of bone regeneration was found
when membrane exposure occurred
earlier. Other studies have examined
early versus late membrane exposure
or removal.19,23,24
It seems that if a
membrane can remain covered for a
significant period, up to 6-8 months,
bone regeneration is predictable.
Factors that impede wound heal-
ing in an otherwise healthy individual
are foreign materials, necrotic tissue,
compromised blood supply, and
wound tension. These factors may
partly explain the reduced bone forma-
tion around exposed membranes.
Other possible reasons for the reduced
amount of bone formation are contam-
ination of the membrane with oral mi-
croflora caused by an open wound.25-28
More rapid resorption of bone grafting
materials in areas of membrane expo-
sure has also been reported. Jovanovic
et al29
examined 11 patients with de-
hiscence defects on the facial aspect of
19 threaded implants. A unique
method of providing space was by
placing the membrane over the im-
plants and fixating them with the im-
plant cover screw. Primary closure
was attained, and clinical evaluation
was performed after 4 months of heal-
ing. In cases in which the membranes
remained covered, 14/19 sites with de-
hiscence showed 100% bone fill in the
space created by the membrane. How-
ever, in the areas of membrane expo-
sure, little bone regeneration occurred.
These findings have further been con-
firmed in a beagle dog model30,31
and
more recently in human beings.32
The majority of membrane expo-
sure data relate to nonresorbable mem-
branes, both reinforced and nonreinforced.
The development and widespread use of
absorbable collagen membranes may
circumvent this problem. Indeed, in
addition to a reduced risk of mem-
brane exposure,22
the reported advan-
tages of these membranes are a lack of
need for second stage surgery and
physiologically favorable properties
of the membranes themselves, such as
hemostatic, chemotactic, and cell ad-
hesion functions.33-35
Advantages of collagen mem-
branes include their hemostatic func-
tion by platelet aggregation, which
facilitates early clot formation and
wound stabilization. Both early clot
formation and wound stabilization are
considered essential for successful re-
generation.36
Collagen also possesses
a chemotactic function for fibroblasts
that assists in cell migration to pro-
mote primary wound closure.37
Colla-
gen membranes are also effective in
inhibiting epithelial migration and
promoting new connective tissue
attachment.38-42
Predictable treatment
outcomes have been shown using
absorbable collagen membranes in
conjunction with bone mineral as a
supporting and space maintaining
device.43-45
In a series of 2 reports on local-
ized ridge augmentation using GBR,
Buser et al46,47
advocated primary soft
tissue healing, to avoid membrane ex-
posure, by using a lateral incision
technique. Other techniques that have
been advocated in an effort to gain
tension-free primary wound closure
include a buccal rotational flap,48
coronally positioned palatal sliding
flap,49
split palatal rotated flap,50
and,
more recently, a palatal advanced
flap.15
Together, the aforementioned
studies highlight the importance of
primary wound closure. Correct flap
design, tension-free flap approxima-
tion, and postoperative care of the
wound site are keys to achieving, and
maintaining, primary closure. Flaps
should be carefully designed and exe-
cuted to ensure passive closure with-
out tension on the wound margins.
Collagen membranes, with their che-
motactic function, may facilitate pri-
mary wound coverage, even after
membrane exposure.42
ANGIOGENESIS
Wound healing around implants is
similar to wound healing events in
other parts of the oral cavity, with
several important exceptions. In par-
ticular, bone regeneration progresses
in a sequence that closely parallels its
normal formation.51
The surface of the
implant provides a platform on which
an initial blood clot may form. The
addition of bone grafting materials and
membranes, in accordance with the
principles of GBR, serves to create
space and mediate osteogenesis via
potential release of bone morphoge-
netic proteins. Following implant place-
ment, the first 24 hours are characterized
by formation of a blood clot around im-
plant and in the space created by mem-
branes and bone grafting material. The
initial blood clot is removed by neutro-
phils and macrophages, and initial for-
mation of granulation tissue begins
within the next days and weeks. The
granulation tissue is rich in blood ves-
sels, and it is these vessels that are key
to osteoid formation and subsequent
mineralization to woven bone.52
Pri-
marily deposited woven bone will be

3. converted into mature lamellar bone
by secondary remodeling.53
There is an intimate relationship
between newly formed blood vessels
and de novo bone formation.54
It has
been shown that between 6 and 9
months are needed to fill completely
the wound space, initially filled with
blood clot, then with new bone.55
Buser et al47
found that introducing
cortical perforations (i.e., intra-bone
marrow penetration) allowed migra-
tion of cells with angiogenic and os-
teogenic potential. Nonetheless, some
studies have showed that bone regen-
eration can occur even from a nonin-
jured cortical layer.56,57
Future studies
in this area are certainly encouraged.
The concept of a regional accel-
eratory phenomenon was introduced
several decades ago.58-61
Melcher and
Dryer62
also emphasized the impor-
tance of the blood clot in healing of
bony defects. Several potential advan-
tages of decortication exist. Providing
communication with marrow spaces
may enhance revascularization. Growth
factors, such as platelet derived growth
factor, and bone morphogenetic proteins
can be released to enhance periodontal
regeneration63
and peri-implant bone
formation.64
Osteogenic cells important
to bone healing can be derived from 3
main sources: the periosteum, en-
dosteum, and undifferentiated pluripo-
tential mesenchymal cells. The marrow
provides a rich source of these undiffer-
entiated cells that can be transformed
into osteoblasts and osteoclasts. In ad-
dition, the perforations through the
cortical bone provide a mechanical in-
terlock with the newly regenerated
bone. It has even been suggested that
the cortical plate may act as a temporary
hindrance for access of desirable cells
and tissue components from the marrow
because resorption of the cortical bone
has to take place before access to bone
forming components is achieved.65
Beneficial effects of regional ac-
celeratory phenomenon have been re-
ported in several animal studies.52,66-68
Larger perforations have been associ-
ated with a shorter time to obtain bone
fill but without any differences in the
total amount of new bone formed.68
Misch69
has advocated the use of both
buccal and lingual decortication to en-
hance bony healing 2-10 times higher
than normal. However, conflicting re-
ports regarding the beneficial effect of
regional acceleratory phenomenon
have also been reported.65,70,71
Lun-
dgren et al65
used a rabbit calvarial
model to evaluate the effects of decor-
tication. There were 2 titanium cylin-
ders with titanium lids inserted in the
skulls of 8 rabbits. In each animal, the
test side had the outer layer of cortical
bone removed, while the control side
was left with an intact cortex. Block
section and histology performed at 3
months in all animals revealed no dif-
ference in total amount of augmented
tissue (75.5% compared to 71.2%) or
the augmented mineralized bone tissue
(17.8% compared to 16.0%). Together,
the aforementioned literature shows the
need for adequate blood supply and an-
giogenesis for bone regeneration to oc-
cur. Although, to date, no consensus has
been established on the beneficial effect
of cortical perforation.
SPACE CREATION/MAINTENANCE
Providing adequate space for bone
regeneration is a fundamental princi-
ple of GBR. Space is needed to ensure
the proliferation of bone forming cells
while excluding unwanted epithelial
and connective tissue cells. For exam-
ple, in areas of natural space mainte-
nance, such as after the placement of
immediate implants, there is evidence
to suggest that the addition of bone
grafting materials and membranes has
no beneficial effect over no mem-
brane/no graft control sites.50,72,73
A
consensus has yet to be formed regard-
ing the need for the use of barrier
materials and/or bone grafts around
immediately placed implants.74-78
It
may be that assuming the critical
jumping distance has not been ex-
ceeded, the space formed between the
extraction socket and implant fixture
provides an ideal environment for
clot stabilization and subsequent
osteogenesis.79,80
Various animal studies have
proved that by excluding the epithe-
lium and connective tissue, a secluded
space is thereby created, allowing
slowly migrating osteoblast cells to
populate the wound, resulting in en-
hanced bone formation.4,6,57
In a clin-
ical and histomorphometric study in a
canine model, Oh et al31
used a beagle
dog model to compare the effects of 2
collagen membranes (i.e., BioGide;
Osteohealth Co., Shirley, NY, and Bio-
Mend Extend; Zimmer Dental Inc.,
Carlsbad, CA) on GBR in surgically
created buccal implant dehiscence de-
fects. Membrane exposure occurred at
9 of 15 sites and was associated with
poorer regenerative outcomes. In ad-
dition, a pattern of membrane collapse
in most of the exposed sites (8 of 9)
was associated with less regeneration.
The investigators concluded that space
maintenance and membrane coverage
were the 2 most important factors af-
fecting GBR using bioabsorbable col-
lagen membranes.
Reinforced membranes allow
space maintenance by preventing
membrane collapse that may occur
from pressure of overlying tissues. A
titanium mesh incorporated into the
membrane also improves the strength
of the membrane and allows adaptabil-
ity to the shape of the osseous defect.
Jovanovic et al81
used a canine model
and compared 3 treatment groups in
terms of bone regeneration. Group 1
had a titanium-reinforced membrane,
group 2 had a standard expanded poly-
tetrafluoroethylene membrane, and
group 3 was a control and had no
membrane. A marked gain of alveolar
bone volume, resulting in complete
supracrestal regeneration, was noted
in both expanded polytetrafluoroethyl-
ene groups (1.82 and 1.9 mm) com-
pared to only 0.53 mm achieved in the
control group. Several other studies
have compared the use of reinforced
nonresorbable and absorbable mem-
branes using various bone grafting
materials.22,43,82-84
From the available
literature, it can be concluded that
when a significant volume of bone is
required for implant placement, the
use of reinforced membranes or addi-
tional bone grafts is more beneficial.
When higher amounts of bone re-
generation are required, space making
with a barrier membrane is critical. As
mentioned previously, absorbable mem-
branes have various beneficial proper-
ties. However, a major challenge of using
an absorbable membrane alone is mem-
brane collapse that may be caused by
the overlying soft tissue pressure. Var-
ious techniques have been developed
to overcome this challenge. Using
coronally advanced flaps, placing
bone grafting materials under the
10 “PASS” PRINCIPLES FOR PREDICTABLE BONE REGENERATION
4. membrane, or using other methods of
mechanical support such as screws,
pins, or internal membrane frame-
works have all been evaluated with
positive results.85,86
Several case re-
ports and clinical studies were per-
formed in the early 1990s to develop a
predictable surgical protocol that
would enable the maintenance of a
secluded space that could be occu-
pied by cells with an osteogenic
potential.2,46,51,84,87
Whether the use of bone graft ma-
terial has any additional use other than
space maintenance is debatable.88
Mellonig et al83
reported results from
human cases in a delayed implant with
simultaneous GBR technique. There
were 3 treatment groups compared
(i.e., bioabsorbable membrane with
decalcified freeze-dried bone allograft
[DFDBA], expanded polytetrafluoro-
ethylene with DFDBA, and bioabsorb-
able membrane alone) in nonspace
making buccal dehiscence type defects.
Comparable percent of bone-to-implant
contact and amount of new bone vol-
ume, both in height and width, were
observed in both groups using DFDBA.
However, the control membrane-only
group had a less favorable outcome,
which the investigators attributed to lack
of space making characteristics and sub-
sequent membrane collapse.83
Similar results were shown using
a bioabsorbable membrane alone in a
monkey model,89
or using a Teflon
(DuPont Co., Wilmington, DE) mem-
brane alone in a rat model.90
In
contrast, when a stiff, dome-shaped
bioabsorbable membrane was used in
a rabbit calvaria, no difference in the
amount of regenerated bone was found
between the membrane alone group
and the membrane with bone graft
group.91
The literature seems to suggest
that the major role of bone grafting ma-
terial is space creation/maintenance.
Osteogenic and/or osteoconductive
properties of various bone grafts may
also likely play a minor role.
STABILITY
The role of a barrier membrane is
twofold. In addition to excluding un-
wanted cells, it also acts to stabilize the
blood clot.56,57,84,87,91,92
The importance
of initial clot adhesion and wound sta-
bilization is critical in wound heal-
ing.84,87,93,94
It is understood that when
the initial blood clot formation and
wound stability, as well as initial im-
plant stability, are achieved, a predict-
able wound healing sequence will occur.
This sequence will ensure predictable
bone formation. The initial blood clot
is a rich source of cytokines (e.g.,
interleukin-1, interleukin-8, tumor ne-
crosis factor), growth factors (e.g., plate-
let derived growth factor, insulin-like
growth factor, fibroblast growth factor),
and signaling molecules that recruit
clearing cells to the wound site. Platelet
derived growth factor in particular is a
potent mitogen and chemoattractant for
neutrophils and monocytes.95
The blood
clot serves as the precursor of initial
highly vascular granulation tissue. The
granulation tissue is then the site of ini-
tial intramembranous bone formation
and remodeling.51
In addition to clot stabilization,
primary stability of the implant fixture
is a key to successful regeneration and
long-term implant survival.96-98
The
lack of primary stability leads to
micromotion at the bone to implant
interface, which leads to fibrous en-
capsulation of the implant.99
Some
investigators have even advocated en-
gaging 2 cortical layers whenever pos-
sible to enhance initial stability.100,101
Resonance frequency analysis is a
novel method that may be used to as-
sess implant stability. In this tech-
nique, a transducer is attached to the
implant fixture and excited over a de-
fined frequency range. There are 2
factors that determine the resulting
resonance frequency measurement:
the degree of stability at the implant-
bone interface and the level of the
bone surrounding the transducer.102-106
Using resonance frequency analysis,
Meredith et al102
examined 56 im-
plants during their first year of inser-
tion in 9 patients. The resonance
frequency increased from 7473 to
7915 Hz on average after 8 months.
There were 2 implant failures (failure
to integrate) characterized by lower
resonance frequency readings. How-
ever, its usage in detecting implant
stability during or following GBR re-
mains to be addressed.
Clinical Case and Technique
Fig. 2 illustrates the use of an absorb-
able collagen membrane with human
mineralized bone allograft to augment
a horizontal ridge defect in conjunc-
tion with implant placement.
Technique
• Baseline information analysis
(Figs. 2A and 2B): A preoperative
clinical and radiographic evalua-
tion is needed to assess the need
for bone augmentation during im-
plant placement.
• Initial incision (Fig. 2C): An at-
tempt is always made to locate the
initial incision away from the de-
fect site so that closure is not
directly over the defect site. Ver-
tical releasing incisions, either fol-
lowing the mucogingival junction
or extending beyond mucogingival
junction, are used whenever indi-
cated. Mucogingival junction inci-
sion is a beveled vertical incision
dropped toward the buccal aspect,
with a wider base down to the
mucogingival junction. This inci-
sion is continued along the mu-
cogingival junction until adequate
visualization of the surgical site is
attained. The primary purpose of
this flap is to provide a wide base
of blood supply and minimize the
scar tissue formation because the
scar formed is likely to be hidden
by the natural mucogingival junc-
tion. This effect is more predict-
able to achieve in patients with a
wide band of keratinized gingiva.
• Reflection (Fig. 2D): A full thick-
ness mucoperiosteal flap is re-
flected 2-3 mm beyond the
margins of the defect. Traction is
then placed on the flap, and an
incision is made through the peri-
osteum. The reflection is then
continued by blunt dissection,
creating a split thickness flap that
can be repositioned tension free
over the area to be treated, and
primary closure be obtained. Sev-
eral periosteal scorings within the
buccal alveolar mucosa are also
performed to allow easy segmental
flap advancement, without placing
excessive tension on the flap base.
Usually, each periosteal scoring al-
lows 2-3-mm flap advancement.
• De´bridement (Fig. 2E): Granula-
tion tissue is completely removed
to help stop bleeding and allow
careful inspection of the defect.
IMPLANT DENTISTRY / VOLUME 15, NUMBER 1 2006 11
5. Implant drills were performed ac-
cording to manufacturer’s recom-
mended protocol. In addition,
drilling was based upon the prefab-
ricated surgical guides that consider
proper esthetic profile (Fig. 2F).
Fig. 2G shows implant placement
in a proper position with an obvious
horizontal ridge deficiency.
• Removal of epithelium: Where
appropriate, as in treatment of
defects associated with existing
implants, epithelium should be re-
moved from the inner surface of
the flap using a sharp curette or
diamond bur. The implant surface
should then be detoxified with ap-
propriate agents (e.g., 50 mg/mL
tetracycline for 3 minutes).
• Fitting the membrane: Collagen
membrane is trimmed and fitted
so that it extends 2-3 mm beyond
the margins of the defect in all
directions. Usually, the collagen
membrane is hydrated in sterile
saline or sterile water for 5-10
minutes before use, to improve
handling (malleability), however,
this is not mandatory.
• Fitting the flap: The flap is
checked and trimmed if necessary
to ensure that primary tension-
free closure is possible.

12 “PASS” PRINCIPLES FOR PREDICTABLE BONE REGENERATION
6. • Cortical perforations (Fig. 2H):
Cortical perforations are made
with a half-round bur to create
bleeding at the defect site and al-
low egress of progenitor cells.
• Bone replacement graft placement
(Figs. 2I and 2J): Graft material (e.g.,
mineralized bone allograft) is
placed at the defect site to support
the tented membrane. Tenting
screw(s) can also be used for this
purpose, either alone or in con-
junction with graft material(s).
• Membrane placement (Fig. 2K):
The membrane is then adapted at
the defect site. If the membrane is
stable, no attempt is made to fix
it. However, if the membrane is
not stable, then pins, bone screws,
or tacks may be needed to assist
the membrane stability.
• Closing (Fig. 2L): The surgical
site is closed with Vicryl (Ethi-
con, Inc., Johnson & Johnson,
Somerville, NJ), Teflon, or silk
suture with passive tension.
POSTOPERATIVE CARE
Antibiotic (e.g., Amoxicillin 2
g/day for 10 days) can be prescribed
for the patient. The patient is placed
on warm saltwater rinses for the first
2-3 weeks to encourage normal flap
healing without disturbing migrating
cells. Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.12%
(i.e., Peridex; Zila Pharmaceuticals,
Inc., Phoenix, AZ)or Periogard
(Colgate-Palmolive, New York, NY)
mouthrinse will then be used for the
next 3 weeks to facilitate plaque con-
trol. Sutures are removed at 10-14
days. The surgical site should be
checked every 2 weeks for a period of
2 months (Fig. 2M). Final result is
usually assessed at the implant uncov-
ering, typically 4-6 months after initial
surgery (Fig. 2N).
CONCLUSIONS
GBR can be a very predictable
treatment modality in the partially or
fully edentulous implant patient. The
success of the technique is based on
several biologically supported princi-
ples, such as PASS: primary wound
closure to ensure undisturbed and un-
interrupted wound healing, angiogen-
esis to provide necessary blood supply
and undifferentiated mesenchymal
cells, space maintenance/creation to
facilitate adequate space for bone in-
growth, and stability of wound and
implant to induce blood clot formation
and uneventful healing events. This
article has reviewed the biologic foun-
dation that is essential for successful
GBR. In addition, the technique in-
volved in this principle was clearly
illustrated.

“PASS”-Prinzipien fu¨r eine vorhersagbar erfolgreiche Knochengewebsregeneration
ABSTRACT: Die geleitete Knochengewebswiederherstellung stellt eine eingefu¨hrte
Methode zur Anreicherung unzureichender Alveolarleisten dar. Eine vorhersagbare gute
Regeneration bedarf sowohl der groen technischen Fa¨higkeiten wie auch eines pro-
funden Kenntnisstandes bezu¨glich der einer erfolgreichen Wundheilung zu Grunde lieg-
enden Prinzipien. Die vorliegende Arbeit beschreibt die vier wesentlichen biologischen
Prinzipien (d.h. PASS), die fu¨r eine vorhersagbar gute Knochenregeneration erforderlich
sind. Hierzu geho¨ren: der prima¨re Wundverschluss zur Gewa¨hrleistung einer ungesto¨rten
und ununterbrochenen Wundheilung; Gefa¨bildung zur Bereitstellung eines aus-
reichenden Blutzuflusses sowie unvera¨nderte Mesenchymalzellen; Raumerhaltung oder
-schaffung, um den entsprechenden Platz fu¨r Neuknochenbildung bereit zu stellen; und
Wund- sowie Implantatstabilita¨t zur Vermeidung von Blutgerinnselbildung und unerwu¨n-
schten Begleiterscheinungen bei der Heilung. Auerdem werden in der Abhandlung eine
neuartige Lappenkonstruktion sowie klinische Fa¨lle, die dieses Prinzip praktisch zur
Anwendung gebracht haben, vorgestellt.

Los principios “PASS” para la regeneracio´n pronosticable del hueso
ABSTRACTO: La regeneracio´n guiada del hueso es una te´cnica bien establecida para
aumentar crestas alveolares deficientes. La regeneracio´n pronosticable requiere un alto
nivel de aptitud te´cnica y un completo entendimiento de los principios de curacio´n de una
herida. Esta manuscrito describe los cuatro principios biolo´gicos principales (PASS)
necesarios para la regeneracio´n pronosticable del hueso; cierre de la herida principal para
asegurar una curacio´n de la herida sin problemas y sin interrupciones; angioge´nesis para
proporcionar el suministro necesario de sangre y ce´lulas mesenquimales indiferenciadas;
mantenimiento/creacio´n del espacio para facilitar un espacio adecuado para el crecimiento
del hueso; y estabilidad para la herida y el implante para inducir la formacio´n de un
coa´gulo sanguı´neo y una curacio´n sin dificultades. Adema´s, se presentan un disen˜o nuevo de
la aleta y casos clı´nicos que utilizan este principio.
PALABRAS CLAVES: GBR; regeneracio´n guiada del hueso; injertos de hueso; aumento
horizontal del hueso, implantes.

Princı´pios “PASS” para Regenerac¸a˜o O´ ssea Previsı´vel
RESUMO: A Regenerac¸a˜o O´ ssea Guiada e´ uma te´cnica consagrada usada para aumento
de rebordos alveolares deficientes. A regenerac¸a˜o previsı´vel exige tanto um alto nı´vel de
habilidade te´cnica quanto um entendimento completo dos princı´pios subjacentes da cura
de feridas. Este manuscrito descreve os quatro princı´pios biolo´gicos principais (i.e.,
PASS) necessa´rios para a regenerac¸a˜o o´ssea previsı´vel: Fechamento prima´rio da ferida
para assegurar a cura tranqu¨ila e ininterrupta de feridas; Angiogeˆnese para fornecer
suprimento necessa´rio de sangue e ce´lulas mesenquimais indiferenciadas; Manutenc¸a˜o/
criac¸a˜o de espac¸o para facilitar espac¸o adequado para crescimento para dentro do osso; e
estabilidade de ferida e implante para induzir a formac¸a˜o de coa´gulo sangu¨ı´neo e eventos
de cura tranqu¨ilos. Ale´m disso, um original design de borda e casos clı´nicos que utilizam
este princı´pio sa˜o apresentados.
PALAVRAS-CHAVE: GBR; Regenerac¸a˜o o´ssea guiada; enxertos o´sseos; aumento hor-
izontal do osso; implantes.
