Bone and Soft Tissue Augmentations in the Esthetic Area:
A Technique-sensitive Procedure
DR. UELI GRUNDER
FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 12, 2025
Bone and soft tissue augmentation are necessary to compensate for or prevent tissue deficits around implants placed in the esthetic region. Lack of bone can either make the placement of implants impossible or it is a limiting factor for an optimal esthetic result. Guided Bone Regeneration is a proven technique for such bone augmentation. When used correctly and with the right materials, the desired result can be achieved with good long-term results. However, the GBR technique is very technique sensitive. Mistakes which prevent success can be made starting with the incision technique over the membrane adaptation to tension free flap adaptation. But we learned that bone augmentation alone doesn’t give us the perfect tissue volume. Soft tissue augmentation appears to be of enormous importance, particularly for long- term success. Depending on the initial situation, various techniques are successful if they are applied correctly. This presentation will discuss the goals of the GBR and soft tissue augmentation techniques, especially in the aesthetic field, as well as which steps in the surgical phase are essential for success. The special procedure for difficult initial situations or complications during treatment is also discussed.
