Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: All Study Participants - d-PTFEExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The proposed study design is a randomized controlled trial, split mouth design, to compare the two different vertical augmentation procedures: Titanium mesh (Ti-mesh) technique and Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) technique with a high-density polytetrafluoroethylene (d-PTFE) membrane.
