When the buccal bone fractures, but stays in place as it appears in this video, it always heals ? With the addition of autgenous bone and fibrin and collagen membrane, there is much support. Some Drs. do not use the fibrin ?

I agree with Henry. As for one of the other comments about ridge splitting vs. expansion, take a look at Dr. Ady Palti's lectures on XP. It was very well done but I don't believe you can easily split a 1mm ridge very effectively as a previous post suggested even if you were Hilt Tatum, also an Xpert on this site.

Dr. Hilt Tatum can expand a ridge that is 1.0mm wide using osteotomes. He is able to direct the direction of the expansion. See him in Puerto Rico at his course.

Most informative. Thanks. The BTI implant seems to be an aggressive cutting implants ideal for this technique. How would this design compare with the traditional design of a tapered screw-vent implant such as Zimmer’s and are the apex diameters smaller in comparison with similar size platform Zimmer implants

Can this technique be done with any other type of implants?

Use of Bone Grafts for the Enhancement of a GTR-Based Root Coverage Procedure: A Pilot Case Study
The use of guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedures for the treatment of gingival recession has shown encouraging results and is gaining clinical acceptance. However, attaining space maintenance beneath the membrane remains a problem for clinicians. Hence, the purpose of this pilot case study was to evaluate the effect of adjunctive demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) placement during collagen membrane GTR-based root coverage procedures. Five patients with Miller Class I or II defects…

Alloplastic Bone Substitutes Around Dental Implants
The repair of osseous defects has been a goal in dentistry for many decades. Subsequently, within the last several years, there has been an emergence of a new class of materials in dentistry referred to as synthetic bone. Finding the ideal bone substitute material has been the goal of researchers for many years. In attempting to achieve this ideal material, dental practitioners have tried with varying degrees of success: autogenous and demineralized freeze-dried bone, allografts of plastic, carbon…
