In addition to the advances made during the past
years, thanks to the use of new process techniques, surfaces
and materials in mouth-jaw-and-face surgery and
in implantology, the last decade has also seen an
increase in the use of growth factors and hard and soft
tissue from the laboratory, i.e. "tissue engineering".
The contribution presents an overview of current and
near-future techniques and indicates in which areas
biologically active techniques are used, what groups of
patients can be given this treatment and what the current
limits of these procedures are. The presentation
will be based on the workgroup experience of the past
ten years, with pre-clinical and clinical examples be
given.
