Guided Bone Regeneration Combined With PRGF for Atrophic Edentulous Maxilla (GBR-PRGF-Maxil)

3 september 2026 bijgewerkt door: Universidade do Porto

Guided Bone Regeneration Combined With Plasma Rich in Growth Factors for Vertical and Horizontal Augmentation of the Atrophic Edentulous Maxilla: A Prospective Clinical Case Series With One-Year Follow-up

This prospective interventional clinical study evaluated guided bone regeneration combined with plasma rich in growth factors for vertical and horizontal augmentation of the atrophic edentulous maxilla.

Participants with severe maxillary ridge atrophy requiring bone augmentation before implant-supported rehabilitation underwent guided bone regeneration using a composite graft of autogenous bone and anorganic bovine bone mineral combined with plasma rich in growth factors. Barrier membranes were stabilised with titanium pins, and lateral-window sinus floor elevation was performed when indicated. Implants were placed using a delayed protocol at re-entry after 6-9 months.

Radiographic bone height and width were assessed by cone-beam computed tomography before surgery, immediately after surgery, at 6-9 months, and at 12 months. The study also recorded graft dimensional stability, implant placement, and surgical or postoperative complications.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Severe atrophy of the edentulous maxilla may limit fixed implant-supported rehabilitation because of insufficient residual alveolar ridge height and width. Guided bone regeneration is used to reconstruct deficient ridges before implant placement, while plasma rich in growth factors may provide an autologous fibrin matrix enriched with platelet-derived mediators.

This prospective clinical study assessed a guided bone regeneration protocol combined with plasma rich in growth factors for reconstruction of the atrophic edentulous maxilla. Eligible participants presented with an edentulous atrophic maxilla requiring vertical and/or horizontal ridge augmentation before implant placement. The surgical protocol included guided bone regeneration using a composite graft of autogenous bone and anorganic bovine bone mineral in a 60:40 ratio, combined with plasma rich in growth factors prepared from autologous blood. The grafted area was covered with a barrier membrane stabilised with titanium pins. Titanium-reinforced PTFE membranes were used for defects requiring vertical space maintenance, while collagen membranes were used for horizontal augmentations. Lateral-window sinus floor elevation was performed simultaneously when indicated by posterior maxillary anatomy.

Cone-beam computed tomography was obtained pre-surgically, immediately post-operatively, at 6-9 months, and at 12 months. Linear vertical and horizontal bone measurements were performed at three standardised maxillary reference sites: the lateral wall of the nasal cavity, the medial wall of the maxillary sinus, and the zygomatic apophysis. Bone gain was calculated in millimetres and as percentage change relative to the pre-surgical dimension. Graft resorption was calculated between the immediate post-operative and 12-month assessments. Implant placement and intraoperative or postoperative complications were also recorded.

Experimenteel: GBR Combined With PRGF
Participants with an atrophic edentulous maxilla requiring vertical and/or horizontal bone augmentation before implant-supported rehabilitation underwent guided bone regeneration combined with plasma rich in growth factors. The procedure used a composite graft of autogenous bone and anorganic bovine bone mineral combined with PRGF. Barrier membranes were stabilised with titanium pins, and simultaneous lateral-window sinus floor elevation was performed when clinically indicated.
Guided bone regeneration was performed for reconstruction of the atrophic edentulous maxilla. Autogenous bone harvested intra-orally was combined with anorganic bovine bone mineral in a 60:40 ratio and mixed with autologous plasma rich in growth factors. The grafted area was covered with a barrier membrane stabilised with titanium pins. Titanium-reinforced PTFE membranes were used for defects requiring vertical space maintenance, while collagen membranes were used for horizontal augmentations. Lateral-window sinus floor elevation was performed simultaneously when indicated. Implants were placed using a delayed protocol at re-entry after 6-9 months.
