E. Reconstruction of the deficient alveolar bone and associated soft tissue may be approached with guided tissue regeneration. The regenerative membrane established a protected chamber into which bone is expected to form. The periosteum is elevated and stretched over the regenerative membrane.

E.

F. When the implant is placed, it will be housed within a combination of regenerative tissue and the residual alveolus. In general, the portion of the implant within the native bone, lies in the residual cortex of the ridge crest. To become a stable structure, remodeling will be necessary to establish normal anatomical architecture as illustrated in H.
