📚 “Pericardium Membrane in Guided Bone Regeneration: From Routine Clinical Practice to Complex Bone Augmentation Procedures.” – Dr. Silvio Mario Meloni | VIDEC 2026

🦴 Pericardium Membrane in Guided Bone Regeneration: From Routine Clinical Practice to Complex Bone Augmentation Procedures
Barrier membrane selection is one of the key determinants of successful Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR). Beyond supporting bone regeneration, the choice of membrane directly influences graft stability, wound healing, complication rates, and the long-term predictability of treatment outcomes.

At VIDEC 2026, Dr. Silvio Mario Meloni – Associate Professor at the School of Dentistry, University of Sassari (Italy), the first Italian clinician to achieve European Association for Osseointegration (EAO) Certification, and a leading researcher in digitally assisted Guided Bone Regeneration – will present the latest evidence in the lecture:
📚 “Pericardium Membrane in Guided Bone Regeneration: From Routine Clinical Practice to Complex Bone Augmentation Procedures.”

🔬 Based on recent clinical evidence and extensive surgical experience, this lecture will review the application of cross-linked bovine pericardium membranes in socket preservation, periodontal regeneration, sinus augmentation, and Guided Bone Regeneration procedures.

The session will discuss how the membrane’s multi-laminar collagen-elastin structure provides high tensile strength, excellent suturing resistance, and prolonged resorption time, allowing predictable horizontal bone gain and moderate vertical bone augmentation when used with particulate grafts and membrane fixation. Clinical evidence comparing cross-linked bovine pericardium membranes with non-resorbable PTFE barriers will also be presented, highlighting their favorable healing profile, reduced complications in cases of membrane exposure, and the advantage of eliminating the need for a second surgery for membrane removal.

👨‍⚕️ An essential scientific session for clinicians interested in implant dentistry, Guided Bone Regeneration, bone augmentation, and evidence-based biomaterials for regenerative therapy.
👉 Join VIDEC 2026 to discover the latest advances in regenerative dentistry and learn directly from internationally renowned experts.
