Membrane Application Istanbul | Guided Bone Regeneration – DentMax

What Is a Membrane Application?

Membrane application is a guided bone regeneration (GBR) technique that involves placing a biocompatible barrier between soft tissue and bone graft material. It promotes predictable bone growth by preventing soft tissue interference in the healing site.

When Is It Used?

• Before dental implant placement in areas with insufficient bone

• In post-cyst removal bone defects

• In periodontal bone loss cases

• Following traumatic bone loss

• In any situation where controlled bone regeneration is desired

Types of Membranes Used

• Resorbable membranes: Naturally degrade over time; no second surgery needed

• Non-resorbable membranes: Require surgical removal; often reinforced with titanium
  The choice of membrane at DentMax depends on the patient’s specific clinical needs.

What Is the Treatment Process?

1. Local anesthesia is applied

2. The site is surgically accessed

3. Bone graft material is placed into the defect

4. A membrane is placed over the graft

5. Soft tissue is closed and sutured over the membrane

6. Healing takes approximately 3–6 months depending on the case

Is Membrane Application Painful?

No. It is performed under local anesthesia. Mild post-operative discomfort may occur but is usually well managed with prescribed pain medication.

Postoperative Instructions

• Keep the surgical site clean and avoid mechanical trauma

• Avoid hard or hot foods

• Do not smoke

• Use prescribed antibiotics and mouth rinses as directed

• Attend all follow-up appointments for evaluation
