Augmentation of Horizontal and Vertical Defects with the Titanium Re-inforced PTFE-Membrane

Horizontal and vertical defects of the alveolar ridge represent some of the most challenging conditions in implant dentistry and require a high level of surgical skill and clinical expertise to be managed predictably. PTFE membranes provide a highly versatile and reliable tool for the treatment of these defects. In this lecture, five “golden keys” will be presented that enable clinicians to perform demanding augmentation procedures with PTFE membranes in a controlled and predictable manner.
