Baseline: compromised soft-tissue architecture at site #9 due to ill-fitting Nesbit appliance.

Sulcular and paracrestal incision for full thickness flap elevation with single vertical incision distal to the site.

Presence of horizontal tissue deficiency clearly visible following flap elevation.

Application of 50:50 mixture of Geistlich Bio-Oss® and autologous bone chips harvested using Geistlich SafeScraper Twist.

Geistlich Bio-Gide® stabilized using fixation pins and covering the graft material.

Tension-free primary closure achieved using 4-0 PTFE sutures.

Soft-tissue contour at 4-month healing. Fixed provisional in place for soft-tissue contouring.

Occlusal view demonstrating gain in horizontal dimension for prosthetically guided implant placement.

Pre-operative situation showing the horizontal ridge deficiency (left). Buccal bone concavity evident after full thickness flap elevation (middle). There is insufficient bone to place implants in an ideal restorative position (right).

It is important to locate the mental foramen. Intramarrow penetrations were done to allow for improved blood supply to the bone graft.

The clinical cocktail used for guided bone regeneration: 1) 50/50 mixture of autogenous bone chips, collected with Geistlich SafeScraper TWIST, and Geistlich Bio-Oss®, and 2) Geistlich Bio-Gide® Compressed 20 x 30 mm and 13 x 25 mm.

“Sticky bone”, created by combining PRF with the bone graft, adapted well to the site of the defect. Periosteal biting sutures were used for stabilization of the multiple layers of Geistlich Bio-Gide® Compressed and underlying bone graft.

Geistlich Bio-Gide® Compressed was carefully trimmed to be mindful of the mental nerve.

Tension-free primary closure achieved with horizontal mattress sutures and simple interrupted sutures.

Re-entry and CBCT scan at 8 months showing a significant increase in horizonal bone dimension.

Sufficient regenerated bone to allow for implant therapy (left). Implants #19 and #20 placed. Vital bone from guided bone regeneration as evidenced by the bleeding bone (middle). Tension-free primary closure achieved using 5-0 glycolon sutures.

1 - Initial clinical situation showing an extended horizontal and vertical bone gap at former positions of teeth 3 and 4 which were extracted 8 weeks earlier.

2 - CBCT showing a deficient vestibular contour and the corresponding bone defect. 3-D design of Yxoss CBR® derived from the patient’s anatomy.

3 - Surgical situation with horizontal and vertical bone defect.

4 - After testing the adaptation of Yxoss CBR® to the defect, it is filled with a graft consisting of 30% autologous particulate bone and 70% granules of Geistlich Bio-Oss®.

5 - Yxoss CBR® fixed with titanium screws.

6 - Adaptation of Geistlich Bio-Gide® over the structure. Complete, tension-free wound closure will follow.

7 - Sites at the day of the procedure after sutures placed. Tunnel between #23,24 and partial thickness flap raised between #23,22.

8 - Radiographic situation after 6 months of healing, before reopening.

9 - Insertion of two implants (Straumann® BLT). The resonance frequency measurement shows ISQ values of 70-75.

10 - Insertion of the healing abutments and adaptation of the flap.

11 - Soft tissue maturation 12 weeks after implant insertion.

12 - Clinical situation after prosthetic finalization, 18 months after surgery. X-ray shows stability of marginal bone levels.

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.

An occlusal view of the final one-piece, screw-retained zirconia crown restoration based on a Camlog® Titanium Base Abutment.

After 3 months of healing, the top of the gingiva former is exposed and the situation is ready for Emergence Profile Development. This is quite standard.

1 - Initial Clinical Situation, Occlusal/Buccal Shots of Missing teeth #12 and 13.

2 - Intra-Operative, Implant Placement of #12 and 13.

3 - Intra-Operative, Placement of Geistlich Fibro-Gide® in the Buccal Concavity of #12 and 13.

4 - Immediate Post-Operative Buccal Soft Tissue Thickness.

5 - Two Months Post-Operative Healing with Provisional Restorations.

1 - Pre-operative situation, tooth #7 with periapical infection and horizontal fracture.

2 - CT Scan showing tooth #7 with significant bone loss.

3 - Occlusal view of the clinical situation prior to extraction of tooth #7.

4 - Extraction socket with Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® in place.

5 - Geistlich Mucograft® Seal is placed over the extraction socket and secured with single interrupted sutures.

6 - 3 months post-operative: soft tissue healing at the time of implant placement.

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.
