Abstract:
This systematic review focuses on the management of
two types of osseous defects, i.e. dehiscence and
fenestration that arise during the placement of dental
implant in the edentulous area (delayed implant
placement). A systematic online search of main
database from 1975 to 2009 was made. Five
randomised controlled trials have been identified based
on the inclusion criteria. Different management
procedures were identified, in which guided bone
regeneration procedure was most commonly advocated.
Resorbable and non-resorbable m'embranes were
compared, in which resorbable membrane was
preferred as it caused less complicatiQn of membrane
exposure or risk of infection. The benefit of using bone
substitute along with membrane in rypairing bony
defects cannot be concluded.
