agree  Johannes Gleim: tentering = Spannen im Sinne von Ausbreiten, sonst wäre es eine tensioning screw. tenting erinnert mich nur an tent = Zelt.

Explanation:
1.2mm Membrane Tenting Screws
Large surface area head effectively supports membrane
Maintains volume in the graft site

For the ridge defects, tenting screws were utilized to help maintain the space under the Gore-Tex membranes which were trimmed and shaped to completely cover the grafted defects, by at least a 2mm margin, but clear of the juxtaposing dentition
