Synopsis

Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein (rhBMP-2) regenerates normal bone de-novo without the need and added morbidity of bone harvesting. Now ridge preservation, ridge augmentation, sinus lift surgeries and even continuity defects can be reconstructed in such grafting.

Learning Objectives
  1. Explain bone regeneration without bone harvesting.
  2. Describe how to expand bone grafting capabilities.
  3. Discuss the extended applications of rhBMP-2 for large-sized defects.
