The advancement of guided bone regeneration (GBR), which restores various types defects faster andmore safely, broadens the implant indications and opens up many possibilities. However, planning sufficientregeneration in severe vertical horizontal defects, especially periodontally compromised patients, is not easy. For successful procedure, clinician must carefully analyze form destruction three dimensions strictly select appropriate membrane graft material accordingly. In addition, key factors for GBR success such as blood supply, stability,and primary closure should always be considered. Soft-tissue management optimized flap design, fixation techniques seem to another important factor long-term success.
