Full mouth rehabilitation of a patient with horizontal bone resorption through guided bone regeneration simultaneous to the placement of implants. Rev. Estomatol.

The purpose of this clinical case was to rehabilitate a partially edentulous patient with horizontal bone resorption in the anterior aesthetic zone using dental implants. In the present report, the clinical case of a 78-year-old healthy systemic patient with severe horizontal bone resorption carrier for many years of removable partial denture is reported. Guided bone regeneration was performed with simultaneous placement of dental implants using titanium meshes that were fixed to the implant. Xenograft of bovine origin was used as a biomaterial. Blood was collected from the patient to elaborate, by centrifugation, membranes of plasma rich in fibrin advanced (A-PRF) that were placed on the titanium meshes. After 10 months the bone regeneration and implant stability were checked. We proceeded with the rehabilitation by fixed unit prosthesis in the areas of regeneration. In the posterior superior and inferior sector, removable partial dentures were installed, the lower one being retained by an implant using a locator-type abutment as retainer. The guided bone regeneration simultaneous to the dental implant placement is a highly predictable and reliable treatment in the treatment of partially edentulous patients with severe horizontal bone resorption.
