Abstract :
Achieving esthetically satisfactory results after the replacement of missing maxillary incisors is a challenging task that requires meticulous planning on the part of dentists The main aesthetic objectives of an implant-supported prosthesis, from a surgical point of view, are the achievement of a harmonious gingival margin, the maintenance of intact papillae, and the preservation or delineation of a convex contour of the alveolar crest. GBR involves the application of a membrane to exclude non?osteogenic tissues from interfering with bone regeneration that may impede the osseointegration process.The present report describes a case of rehabilitation of missing anterior teeth in the maxillary esthetic zone by means of dental implants using GBR to aid in augmenting the deficient buccal bone.
