N2 - The aim of this investigation was to histologically compare the effects of new titanium membranes with those of proven expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membranes on alveolar ridge augmentation. The study was carried out using a canine mandible where the right and left premolar teeth were previously extracted. At the second month of healing following extraction, a total of seven similar defects were created on both sides of the mandible. Three defects received the titanium membrane, one of which was in the right side of the mandible. Two defects, one on each side, received the ePTFE membrane. The remaining two defects, both on the right side, served as control. Fixation and stabilization of the membranes were accomplished by using the Frios Augmentation System. After three months of healing, the animal was sacrificed, block sections were taken and processed for histological examination according to the cutting and grinding technique. The results revealed that the ePTFE and titanium-treated defects, and the controls, showed complete bone fill with the exception that there was a more pronounced and thicker connective tissue formation in titanium-treated sites as compared to the ePTFE treated and control sites.
