🇬🇧 In this randomized clinical trial, we compared two different digital approaches for vertical ridge augmentation: customized reinforced PTFE mesh and customized CAD/CAM titanium mesh. Seeing this work published in Clinical Oral Implants Research is especially meaningful, as this journal is one of the leading international references in implant dentistry.

For those interested, the abstract is available on PubMed:�https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39180274/
The full article is now available in open access and the PDF can be downloaded directly from the journal website:�https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/clr.14350

A meaningful milestone for me, my co-authors, and our ongoing commitment to evidence-based regenerative surgery.

🇬🇧 Here the treatment of a severe vertical defect in the posterior maxilla. About 10mm of vertical defect treated with customized titanium mesh , 70:30 deproteinized bovine bone matrix and autogenous bone, and collagen membrane. The Bichat's Buccal Fat Pad used to cover the regeneration and to avoid exposure or other complications, as described in our publication. Cucchi A, Randellini E, Bettini S, Corinaldesi G. Effectiveness of Bichat's Buccal Fat Pad (BFP) Technique for Vertical Ridge Augmentation in the Maxilla. Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent. 2023 Mar, Apr;43(2):e99-e109. doi: 10.11607/prd.5473. PMID: 37232689.

🇬🇧 One highlight of the year 2025 was my participation at the international congress of the Digital Dentistry Society, where I had the opportunity to speak in front of more than a thousand colleagues from all around the world. My lecture “How Digital Strategies and Technologies Improve the Predictability of Vertical Ridge Augmentation” reflected my belief that digital workflows are reshaping every phase of bone regeneration. I am sincerely grateful to the DDS community for the trust and for fostering an environment where innovation and friendship walk together.

🇬🇧 Here the treatment of a severe vertical defect: 1. Alveolar ridge augmentation with reinforced PTFE membrane; 2. Placement of tissue-level implants; 3. Soft tissue augmentation with connective tissue graft; 4. CAD/CAM prosthetic restoration.

🇬🇧 There are 4 key factors to achieve the best functional and esthetic outcomes in patients with alveolar bone defects. The last but not the least: CAD/CAM digital prosthetic restoration.

Look at the next clinical case.

🇬🇧 Another meaningful chapter of this year brought me to Padua, where the Italian Academy of Osseointegration (IAO) held its international meeting. Receiving the Osseointegration Award for clinical research in front of colleagues who have become friends over the years was truly emotional. I am sincerely grateful for the recognition and for the enthusiasm shared throughout the event.

The paper on “5-Year Outcomes of Alveolar Ridge Augmentation Using Customized Titanium Meshes With or Without Resorbable Membranes” is now under review in a high-impact journal. Looking forward to its publication.

🇬🇧 Here the result after alveolar ridge augmentation with customized titanium mesh, tissue-level implants, and soft tissue augmentation with connective tissue graft.

🇬🇧 There are 4 key factors to achieve the best functional and esthetic outcomes in patients with alveolar bone defects. The third one: soft tissue augmentation.

Look at the next clinical case.

🇬🇧 Continuing my journey 2025, I had the privilege of presenting the results of a randomized clinical trial titled “Esthetics, Oral-Health-Impact Profile, Peri-Implant Bone and Soft Tissues After Vertical Ridge Augmentation” in Monaco at the annual congress of the European Association for Osseointegration (EAO), 18th-20th September, 2025. Being awarded the 1st Prize for Research – Clinical Innovation was an unforgettable moment for me and for my entire research group. It represents years of dedication, challenges, and shared effort. Standing on that stage and discussing our findings with friends, colleagues and leaders in implant dentistry made the experience even more special. I am really thankful to the EAO for this recognition.

🇬🇧 Here the 4-year outcomes of tissue-level implants after vertical and horizontal ridge augmentation in the posterior mandible using a reinforced PTFE membrane. Perfect stability of the regenerated bone. Zero bone loss around implants.

🇬🇧 There are 4 key factors to achieve the best functional and aesthetic outcomes in patients with alveoalr bone defects. The second one: tissue-level implants.

🇬🇧 Continuing my journey 2025, I had the pleasure of travelling to Abha, Saudi Arabia, as a guest of the Saudi Society of Periodontology & Implant Dentistry (SSPI). It was truly an honour to deliver a lectio magistralis on “Innovations and New Trends in Bone Regeneration,” to such an attentive and diverse audience. I am deeply grateful to the dr. Sami AlQahtani for their warm hospitality and for creating an atmosphere of true friendship.
