Resorbable barrier (guided bone regeneration) vs Non-resorbable barrier (guided bone regeneration): Vertical bone gain
- Population
- Patients receiving immediate single implants in fresh extraction sockets (maxillary anterior/premolar sites)
- Intervention
- Resorbable barrier (guided bone regeneration)
- Comparison
- Non-resorbable barrier (guided bone regeneration)
- Outcome
- Vertical bone gain
Resorbable barrier (guided bone regeneration) showed no clear difference in bone gain (vertical - VDH) compared with non-resorbable barrier (guided bone regeneration); GRADE not reported.

How reviews are matched to this question
Reviews word the same question differently. Four decision models (TypeSafe's Jev, Liquid AI's d1-ultra, SubQ Snap and Baseten's Elephant) judged each wording of the population, intervention, comparator and outcome against the others; two wordings count as the same when at least three of them agree and none clearly disagrees, and findings count as this question only when all four elements match. Timing, setting and subgroup never split a question: they are shown on each finding.
