Vertical 2: The Next Level of Hard and Soft Tissue Augmentation

The second volume by Istvan Urban on ridge regeneration, following Vertical and Horizontal Ridge Augmentation and pitched at a more advanced level. It is built around annotated photographic case sequences in which the author freezes the image to explain what he is doing, what he will do next and why; lessons-learned sections close each case with what could be improved. The mandible receives particularly close attention: extensive defects and native, fibrotic or scarred tissues around the mental nerve during flap advancement. Maxillary reconstruction, infection of the sinus graft and soft tissue architecture after regeneration complete the account. In English.
