Guided bone regeneration is a well-established technique used for augmentation of deficient alveolar ridges, by excluding certain cell types and promoting the bone reconstruction after a bone loss, thanks to the use or certain types of membrane called barrier membrane. This bone loss is generally the consequence of a trauma which can result from several factors.The treatment of this type of resorption is a real challenge in orthopedic and craniomaxillofacial surgery. Indeed, it increases and augments alveolar bone volume in areas designated for future implant placement, and consequently augment the rate of success in implant surgery. The purpose of this study is to present and explain the mechanism of guided bone regeneration by the use of barrier membrane in the treatment of bone loss, and also to present and to compare the different types of barrier membrane that can be used.
