Objective:
To evaluate predictability and treatment outcome of the pure titanium membranes in bone defects around endosseous implants.
Methods:
81 patients and 92 dental implants were included in this study. The defects around implants were filled with bone grafts and Bio-Oss, and then covered by titanium membranes. 6 - 10 months later, all of the membranes were removed.
Results:
5 patients showed complications in soft tissue healing with exposure of the membranes. Bone defects around 89 implants were successfully covered with new regenerated bone.
Conclusions:
Pure titanium membranes show excellent biocompatibility, exhibit good mechanical properties, avoid grafts displacement, ingrowth of connective tissue and contour collapse.
