Complication, vertical bone gain, volumetric changes after vertical ridge augmentation using customized reinforced PTFE mesh or Ti‐mesh. A non‐inferiority randomized clinical trial
This study confirmed the non-inferiority of customized CAD/CAM titanium meshes with respect to reinforced PTFE meshes in terms of surgical and healing complications. Although PTFE meshes showed higher vertical bone gain and regeneration rates than Ti-meshes, no significant differences were found.
