Effect of guided bone regeneration on immediately placed implants: Meta-analyses with at least 12 months follow up after functional loading
Journal of Periodontology Jan 18, 2019
Kinaia BM, et al. - From 1966 to January 2017, researchers assessed data obtained from the search of the National Center for Biotechnology Information PubMed, Medline, and the Cochrane Collaboration Library to estimate the impact of guided bone regeneration (GBR) at the time of immediate implant placement (IIP) on crestal bone level (CBL) changes after at least 12-months of functional loading. They observed a mean difference in CBL changes of 0.179 mm ± 0.174 in favor of IIP without GBR in comparison to implant with GBR. Although, they noticed better results with IIP with bone graft plus membrane as compared to IIP with bone graft alone [CBL changes of 0.532 mm ± 0.572]. CBL preservation was recorded better in IIP with GBR vs conventional implant placement.
