  • Title: Guided tissue regeneration without a stage 2 surgical procedure.
    Author: Callan DP.
    Journal: Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent; 1993; 13(2):172-9. PubMed ID: 8360007.
    Abstract:
    In the two cases described, the problems of insufficient bone and insufficient soft tissue in the edentulous ridge were addressed concurrently. Freeze-dried demineralized bone was used to fill the osseous defect. Freeze-dried fascia lata was used to prevent epithelial migration into the defect, act as a barrier, and eliminate a second surgery for membrane removal. This regeneration procedure can provide increased alveolar bone for better implant placement and esthetics.
