Changes in soft tissue dimensions following horizontal guided bone regeneration with a split-thickness flap design – evaluation of 8 cases with a digital method

Abstract Background Peri-implant soft tissue corrections are often indicated following alveolar ridge augmentation, due to the distortion of the keratinized mucosa at the area of augmentation. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the dimensional soft tissue changes following horizontal...
