- Abstract
The article describes the case of a high-density polytetrafluoroethylene (d-PTFE) membrane exposure and its management. A 63 year old female patient was presented for treatment of a left maxillary premolar and a radiographic examination revealed a longitudinal fracture of tooth 2.4. It suggests that the use of d-PTFE membrane maybe a valid alternative to e-PTFE to rebuild large bony defect and atrophic maxillary and mandibular arches.
