Abstract
The most important factors that affect the long term success of implants are adequate soft and hard tissue volume. Implant operations can be classified as relatively easy operations if adequate tissue volume is available. However, in cases with insufficient soft and hard tissue volume, augmentation procedures are required before implant surgery. In addition, resorption can be avoided by biomaterials placed in the extraction socket in planned tooth extraction. In this presentation, current biomaterials and surgical techniques used for augmentation will be explained with case presentations.
