Abstract
Various techniques have been introduced for the guided bone regeneration procedure. Among these, the sausage technique using a natural collagen membrane has many advantages. This report describes two cases wherein the sausage technique was employed in the maxillary anterior area using deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) and native bilayer collagen membrane (NBCM) without autogenous bone graf t. In both cases, sufficient horizontal bone regeneration for implant placement was achieved. In addition, the bone and implant conditions were maintained without any complications maintained for more than 15 months. Within the limitations of this report, the sausage technique using NBCM with DBBM was able to achieve satisfactory horizontal alveolar bone augmentation for implant placement in the maxillary anterior area.
