Guided Bone Regeneration

Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is a dental procedure used to restore lost jawbone, often before placing implants. It involves placing a barrier membrane over the area where bone needs to grow back. This membrane keeps surrounding tissues away, creating a protected space for bone cells to regenerate and fill in the defect. Often, bone graft material is added to assist growth. The process promotes healthy bone formation, ensuring a solid foundation for dental implants or other restorations. GBR is a safe, effective technique that helps rebuild bone structure necessary for successful dental treatments.
