Bone construction surgery: A case report using recombinant human platelet‐derived growth factor‐BB
Abstract Background The position and condition of bone largely sets the stage for functional and esthetic implant success. In bone construction surgery, creating a sustainable functional matrix is complex, but necessary, to enable long‐term mechanotransduction and maintenance of soft tissue support.
