ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the clinical and radiographic bone gain in guided bone regeneration with titanium mesh, for four different advancement techniques periosteal releasing incision (PRI), double flap incision (DFI), modified periosteal releasing incision (MPRI), and coronally advanced lingual flap (CALF). Forty patients with a partially edentulous mandible were allocated randomly to four study groups (PRI, DFI, MPRI, CALF; 10 patients in each). Clinical bone gain (primary outcome) and radiographic bone gain were evaluated. In addition, correlations between study variables (clinical and radiographic bone gain, flap advancement, mesh exposure area and percentage exposure, pain, and swelling) were explored. CALF exhibited the highest mean clinical bone gain (4.12 ± 1.37 mm) and PRI the lowest (2.60 ± 1.36 mm); the mean clinical bone gain differed significantly among the groups (P < 0.001). The highest mean radiographic bone gain was seen in the CALF group (3.54 ± 1.65 mm) and the lowest in the PRI group (2.06 ± 1.11 mm); the mean radiographic bone gain also differed significantly among the groups (P < 0.001). The correlation analysis revealed positive correlations between flap advancement and radiographic bone gain (P = 0.003) and between swelling and pain (P = 0.007). An inverse correlation was found between flap advancement and swelling (P = 0.049), mesh exposure area and clinical bone gain (P = 0.022), and mesh exposure percentage and clinical bone gain (P = 0.017). In summary, the highest clinical and radiographic bone gain was observed for CALF, while the lowest was observed for PRI.
