Cortical Laminar Bone Membrane: Transforming Regenerative Approaches in Dentistry.

Cortical laminar bone membrane (CLBM) is well known for its extraordinary mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and osteoconductive potential, and thus, it has been revealed as a revolutionary biomaterial in periodontal and alveolar bone regeneration. CLBM offers a superior alternative to traditional barrier membranes used in guided bone regeneration (GBR) and guided tissue regeneration (GTR). CLBM represents a significant advancement in managing complex defects by overcoming common limitations such as premature degradation and inadequate soft tissue support. The review combines insights from current research to evaluate the properties, biological mechanisms, and clinical applications of CLBM, alongside its comparative advantages and limitations.
