Popis: Reduction of the bone dimensions after tooth loss leads to complications during dental implant placement and prosthetic rehabilitation of the patient. Ridge augmentation procedures aim to increase the available bone volume and provide adequate surface area for the following treatment. Different methods and materials are suggested for the purposes of guided bone regeneration. This case report represents the management of a severe bone atrophy with a 3D printed titanium mesh.
