Lateral ridge augmentation using a PCL-TCP scaffold in a clinically relevant but challenging micropig model

Background In implant dentistry, there is a need for synthetic bone substitute blocks to support ridge augmentation in situations where large bone volumes are missing. Polycaprolactone‐based scaffolds demonstrated excellent results in bone tissue engineering applications. The use of customized polyc...
