![Hard and soft tissue augmentation with occlusive titanium barriers in jaw vertical defects: a novel approach](https://image.oaes.cc/78cfab98-8a76-4458-a672-6f69461befc9/4561.fig.4.jpg)
Figure 4. Continuation of the case described in Figures 1 and 2: (A) the barrier was accidentally exposed due to chewing trauma after six weeks. The occlusive titanium barrier, perfectly immobilized, was left in situ for the entire healing period of nine months. No pain or swelling was reported for the remaining 7.5 months. (B) The clinical evidence of new regenerated bone is shown. (C) The detail of the orthopantomography at the baseline is shown. (D) The vertical bone augmentation at two years of follow-up is shown.
