What are the key factors for successful bone augmentation in the edentulous maxilla? As part of the current Oral Regeneration Topic "Advanced Bone Augmentation in the Edentulous Maxilla", Hom-Lay Wang and Giulia Brunello discuss the findings and clinical recommendations of the Global Consensus for Clinical Guidelines (GCCG) on bone augmentation in the edentulous maxilla.  In this Key Publication I...

What if a simple change in surgical technique could transform healing? As part of the current Oral Regeneration Topic “Minimally Invasive Surgical Therapy,” Rino Burkhardt was interviewed by Albert Chen to share the story behind his landmark study, “Coverage of Localized Gingival Recessions: Comparison of Micro- and Macrosurgical Technique,” which challenged traditional methods and reshaped the wa...

Anina Zürcher spoke with Mark Bartold, the first author of our key publication, "Molecular and cell biology of the gingiva." With over 420 citations, this paper has made a significant impact on the field of oral regeneration.  In the interview, Bartold explains the roles of different cells—like fibroblasts, immune cells, and epithelial cells—in tissue health, inflammation, healing, and periodontal...

Join us for an in-depth conversation with William V. Giannobile, interviewed by Sejal Thacker, as he reflects on his key publication, Platelet-derived growth factor stimulates bone fill and rate of attachment level gain. Giannobile discusses the groundbreaking development of recombinant human platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) and their pivotal role in oral tissue regeneration. He traces PDGF...

For the current Oral Regeneration Topic "Digital Technologies in Oral Regeneration", Mia Geisinger spoke with Giulio Rasperini, first author of our key publication "3D-printed bioresorbable scaffold for periodontal repair". In this interview, you will learn more about the potential uses of bioprinting in periodontal regeneration.    According to Rasperini, saving a tooth is more than just protecti...

For the current Oral Regeneration Topic, Luca Gobbato spoke with Jan Cosyn, first author of our key publication on "Immediate Implant Placement". In this interview, you'll learn about the main key take aways of the 10-year prospective study, which offers valuable insights into the long-term outcomes of immediate placed implants. ​ According to Cosyn, immediate implant placement can be a safe clini...

For this Oral Regeneration Topic, Lorenzo Tavelli spoke with Martina Stefanini, first author of our key publication on the management of peri-implant soft tissue defects. It aimed to describe an approach to restore a buccal soft tissue dehiscence combined with the loss of the peri-implant papillae and loss of periodontal attachment on the adjacent teeth.  In the interview, Stefanini reveals how th...

For the current Oral Regeneration Topic Nikolaos Tatarakis spoke with Bjarni Pjetursson and his key publication on Sinus Augmentation . It aimed to systematically review the outcome of sinus floor elevation and the survival of implants inserted in combination with sinus floor elevation. In the interview, Pjetursson also reveals what has changed clinically since the study was published and how this...

For the current Oral Regeneration Topic Jia-Hui Fu spoke with Daniel Thoma and his key publication on Soft Tissue Augmentation/Thickening. It aimed to test whether soft tissue augmentation with a newly developed collagen matrix (CM) leads to volume gain in chronic ridge defects, similar to those obtained by an autogenous subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG). The interview begins with the s...

The study by Istvan Urban and his co-authors is a key-publication on Vertical Ridge Augmentation. It aimed to evaluate the results of vertical guided bone regeneration (GBR) with particulated bone graft material, and the long term success of implants placed in the regenerated bone. Isabella Rocchietta talked to Istvan Urban about this retrospective study online on 28 April 2021. Unfortunately, a p...

The study by Pierpaolo Cortellini and his co-authors is a key-publication on periodontal regeneration. A series of investigations for was undertaken to evaluate the extent and predictability of periodontal regeneration with barrier membranes in deep infrabony defects. Martina Stefanini talked to Pierpaolo Cortellini about this study online on 22 October 2020. Unfortunately, a personal meeting was...

The study by Frank Schwarz and his co-authors is a key-publication on peri-implantitis. It compared the ligature-induced peri-implantitis with naturally occurring peri-implantitis defects. Alberto Monje talked to Frank Schwarz about this study online on 28 May 2020, suring a time when personal meetings were not possible due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They discussed about defect configuration and im...
