Lateral Ridge Augmentation Using Autogenous Bone Blocks or Xenogenic Bone Block Grafts Loaded With Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenic Protein 2
Missing Teeth
About this trial
This is an interventional supportive care trial for Missing Teeth
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- revealing insufficient bone volume for implant placement (cases where less than 50% of the implant surface would be surrounded by native bone) requiring bone augmentation procedure
Exclusion Criteria:
- Medication with a contraindication for implant therapy
- Previous administration of InductOs
- Skeletal immaturity
- Any active malignancy or patient undergoing treatment for a malignancy
- An active infection at the operative site
- Persistent compartment syndrome or neurovascular residua of compartment syndrome
- Pathological fractures such as those observed in (but not limited to) Paget's disease or in metastatic bone

- Contraindications on ethical grounds,
- Pregnancy,
- Intention to become pregnant during the course of the study,
- Breast feeding,
- Treatment with other investigational products,
- Other clinically significant concomitant disease states (e.g., renal failure, hepatic dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, etc),
- Known or suspected non-compliance, drug or alcohol abuse,
- Inability to follow the procedures of the study, e.g. due to language problems, psychological disorders, dementia or confusional state of the subject,
- Participation in another study with investigational drug within the 30 days preceding and during the present study,
- Previous enrolment into the current study,
- Enrolment of the investigator, his/her family members, employees and other dependent persons,

Experimental
Control Group (A)
Test group (B)
Bone augmentation will be performed using autogenous bone from the retromolar or chin area followed by a fixation with titanium screws at the recipients site; filled with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) particles (Bio-Oss®, Geistlich Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland) and covered with a collagen membrane (Bio-Gide®, Geistlich Pharma AG, Switzerland). These course of action is well documented in the literature and standard procedures.
The bone augmentation will be performed using a deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) block (Bio-Oss Spongiosa Block®, Geistlich Parma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland) and a collagen membrane (Bio-Gide®, Geistlich Pharma AG, Switzerland) similarly to the control group. In addition, DBBM will be loaded with rhBMPH-2 (InductOs®, Pfizer AG, Zurich, Switzerland).
