Between 2010 and 2012 he pioneered a new protocol for aveolar ridge augmentation (socket grafting) using a three layer approach, which has become widely used and in a recent study demonstrated a hghly impressive bone volume preservation of between 95% and 105%, far in excess of most other techniques reported in the literature to date.
