Synthetic polylactic acid (PLA) membranes in dentistry offer
a highly controllable, predictable, and biocompatible alternative to natural
collagen membranes for Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) and Guided Tissue
Regeneration (GTR). Their key advantages stem from their tailored mechanical
properties, ability to act as an effective barrier for 4–6 weeks, and complete
biodegradation, which eliminates the need for a second surgery.
