Sequential Human Histology Results of the Subperiosteal Minimally Invasive Aesthetic Ridge Augmentation Technique (SMART): A Chronologic Wound Healing Proof-of-Principle Study

Traditional GBR procedures have been associated with frequent complications and compromised peri-implant esthetics. Tunneling techniques have been proposed as a promising alternative in this regard. More recently, a subperiosteal minimally invasive aesthetic ridge augmentation technique (SMART) was reported to have been clinically successful in a prospective case series.
