Implant placement planned for site #3 and #5 with soft-tissue treatment utilizing a CTG and for sites #10, #12 and #13 with soft-tissue augmentation using Geistlich Fibro-Gide®

2 - Uncovering of site #10 shows a narrow ridge width and an insufficient amount of soft-tissue thickness.

3 - Tooth #10 was extracted and immediately replaced by an implant.

4 - Fill the gap procedure with Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® to achieve contour augmentation and preserve horizontal ridge dimensions.

5 - Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was trimmed to half of the thickness to fit the defect and placed into sites #10, 11, 12 and 13.

6 - The entire site was closed tension-free to facilitate uneventful wound healing.

7 - The 3 month follow-up shows uneventful soft-tissue healing and an increase of soft-tissue thickness at the desired sites.

8 - The 6 month follow-up with the final reconstruction shows that the soft-tissue thickness at the desired site is maintained over time. This contributes to an esthetic and pleasing outcome. (Restorative work by Dr. Chao-Chieh Yang, IUSD)

9 - The 2 month follow-up showing a comparison of the treated sites, one with CTG (left) and one with Geistlich Fibro-Gide® (right) in the same patient. Comparable results have been achieved with both treatments, but without the need for a donor site.

Initial Situation: a failing mandibular molar with a vertical sub-osseous fracture.

A pre-operative radiograph and CBCT showing the cross-section of the involved tooth.

An implant site was developed by placing a pilot drill down the mesial root space, then uprighting it. This was continued up through the drill sequence. The mesial radicular septum is moved in the process.

A Camlog® 5.0 x 11 mm implant was placed with the platform set just down below the bone height of the socket walls.

After placing a 4.0 mm height cylindrical gingiva former in the implant, 250 mg of Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® was packed down in the socket around the implant.

Geistlich Mucograft® was adapted to the region then tucked down under the gingival margin.

The gingival margins were adapted and closed together with 4.0 teflon sutures (Cytoplast™, Osteogenics). The region was then covered with Glustich - PeriAcryl®90 Oral Tissue Adhesive.

4 months later following Emergence Profile Development.

7 - Buccal view showing excellent soft tissue healing and keratinized tissue.

9 - 2 years post-operative: final restoration in place.

1 - Baseline buccal view: soft-tissue concavity at the dental implant site.

2 - Baseline occlusal view: volume deficiency on the buccal aspect.

3 - Adapting and trimming of Geistlich Fibro-Gide® to the defect size. Additional bevel cut performed for the area to be positioned close to the incision line.

4 - Position and fixation of Geistlich Fibro-Gide® to the buccal flap with horizontal mattress suture.

5 - Primary closure obtained by horizontal mattress and single interrupted sutures.

6 - 4 months follow-up: showing the healed soft-tissue after augmentation surgery.

7 - 4 months follow-up: provisional restoration. Notice volume recovery.

8 - Occlusal view before final restoration.

9 - 9 months follow-up: final restoration after soft-tissue augmentation surgery.

1 - Baseline frontal view: missing central incisor. Implant visible through mucosa due to thin biotype.

2 - Baseline occlusal view: soft-tissue deficit in the buccal and occlusal area.

3 - Flap elevation on the buccal side using a full flap crestally and a split flap buccally.

4 - Adaption of Geistlich Fibro-Gide® to the defect size.

5 - Palatal island flap prepared to allow for tension-free wound closure. Geistlich Fibro-Gide® in situ, immobilized with a mattress suture.

6 - Tension-free wound closure using single interrupted sutures (Dafilon 5-0, Braun).

8 - 6 months follow-up: final crown in place.

9 - 2.5 year follow-up shows stable soft-tissue conditions.

1 - Baseline before implant placement showing the soft-tissue deficiency.

2 - Implant surgery after implant placement showing the need for guided bone regeneration.

3 - Guided bone regeneration with Geistlich Bio-Oss® and Geistlich Bio-Gide®.

4 - Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was trimmed to the defect size and placed at full thickness (6 mm) on top of Geistlich Bio-Gide®.

5 - Wound closure (PTFE 5/0 sutures) by combining horizontal mattress sutures and single sutures in a double layer.

8 - Re-entry was performed 3 months post-surgery. Soft-tissue emergence profile at the time of final ceramic-crown delivery 4 months after implant placement.

9 - Clinical and radiographic situation 2 years after implant insertion.

1 - Exposure of the alveolar ridge and buccal bone.

2 - Horizontal and vertical osteotomies of the distracted segment.

3 - The upward lift of the transported segment, achieving a height gain of 7 mm.

4 - Geistlich Bio-Oss® Block is trimmed in a dry state with a piezo surgical device to the required dimension and shaped to completely fit into the recipient site.

5 - The coronally shifted segment is fixed with miniplates and miniscrews and thus immobilizes also the biomaterial block.

6 - The coronally shifted segment is fixed with miniplates and miniscrews and thus immobilizes also the biomaterial block.
