The management of oral and maxillofacial tissue defects caused by tumors, trauma, and
congenital or acquired deformities has been a major challenge for surgeons over the last …

Oral soft tissue thickening or grafting procedures are often necessary to cover tooth
recession, re-establish an adequate width of keratinized tissue, correct mucogingival …

Aim To assess mid‐term clinical, radiographic and profilometric outcomes at implant sites,
previously grafted with a volume‐stable collagen matrix (VCMX) or an autogenous …

Collagen matrices have become a great alternative to the use of connective tissue grafts for
soft tissue augmentation procedures. One of the main problems with these matrices is their …

Background Reconstruction of complex critical-size defects (CSD) in the craniofacial region
is a major challenge, and soft tissue regeneration is crucial in determining the therapeutic …

Soft gingival tissue deficiency remains a severe problem leading to postoperative recession,
peri-implantitis, and bone resorption. The use of collagen matrices does not always lead to …

Objectives To assess the clinical efficacy of xenogeneic collagen matrix (XCM) plus apically
positioned flap (APF) in augmenting the keratinized mucosa (KM) width (KMW) and …

Objectives To assess the outcomes of soft tissue augmentation, in terms of change in level
and thickness of mid‐buccal mucosa, at implants sites in the zone of the aesthetic priority …

Most of the polymers used as biomaterials for scaffolds are naturally occurring, synthetic
biodegradable, and synthetic non-biodegradable polymers. Since synthetic polymers can be …

Much research has been conducted on fabricating biomimetic biomaterials in vitro. Tissue
