Our aim was to describe the application of this membrane for guided bone regeneration (GBR). Materials and Methods: This case report described the treatment and 3D evaluation of two cases utilizing a resorbable magnesium barrier membrane. In Case #1, GBR was performed with a bilayer tunnel flap. The magnesium barrier was placed fixed subperiosteally through remote vertical incisions. In Case #2, GBR was performed using a split-thickness flap design. Volumetric and linear hard tissue alterations were assessed by 3D cone-beam computed tomography subtraction analysis, as well as with conventional intraoral radiography. Results: Case #1 showed a volumetric hard tissue gain of 0.12 cm3, whereas Case #2 presented a 0.36 cm3 hard tissue gain. No marginal peri-implant hard tissue loss could be detected at the two-year follow-up. Conclusions: The application of conventional resorbable collagen membranes would be difficult in either of the cases presented. However, the rigid structure of the magnesium membrane allowed for the limitations of conventional resorbable membranes to be overcome.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina59101698","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,24]],"date-time":"2023-09-24T10:40:22Z","timestamp":1695552022000},"page":"1698","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Possible Applications for a Biodegradable Magnesium Membrane in Alveolar Ridge Augmentation\u2013Retrospective Case Report with Two Years of Follow-Up"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"59","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6398-1836","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel","family":"Palkovics","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Semmelweis University, Szentkir\u00e1lyi Utca 47, 1088 Budapest, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3620-7199","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Patrick","family":"Rider","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Botiss Medical AG, Ullsteinstra\u00dfe 108, 12109 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Svenja","family":"Rogge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Botiss Medical AG, Ullsteinstra\u00dfe 108, 12109 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"\u017deljka Peri\u0107","family":"Ka\u010darevi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Botiss Medical AG, Ullsteinstra\u00dfe 108, 12109 Berlin, Germany"},{"name":"Department of Anatomy Histology and Embryology, Faculty of Dental Medicine and Health, Josip Juraj Strossmayer University, Ul.
