- Abstract
Today, dental implants represent a standard of care for partially edentulous patients. However, missing alveolar bone must be reconstructed, especially after previous attachment loss following periodontitis or trauma. In this case, guided bone regeneration (GBR) has been established and proven as a standard regenerative procedure. In the long-term prognosis, however, inflammatory peri-implant diseases and their treatment are a common complication and challenge. Furthermore, non-inflammatory bone resorption patterns sometimes occur which have not yet been clearly defined. Occasionally, a clinically unrecognizable asymptomatic primary failed bone augmentation may play a crucial role. This rather degenerative bone resorption or - provocatively formulated - "peri-augmentosis" is illustrated and discussed in this article on the basis of scientific principles of GBR as well as two exemplary clinical cases.
