3D Bone Augmentation Using Customized Titanium Mesh in Conjunction with Autogenous Bone and Bovine Bone Material Granules

Preview

Panoramic radiograph of initial situation showing the atrophic mandibular areas.

The final Yxoss CBR® ready for use.

The customized Ti-mesh is filled with the autologous bone chips mixed with Geistlich Bio-Oss® granules in a 50:50 ratio.

Intra-operative view at the end of the reconstruction showing the bone augmentation: the customized mesh was stabilized with 2 fixation screws.

A Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane is used to cover the customized mesh in order to increase the barrier effect.

Intra-operative view after primary closure of the surgical wound.

Panoramic radiograph after surgery.

Clinical control 3 months later showing favorable healing of the soft tissue and correction of the defect.

Initial situation, patient presented with radiographic and clinically traditional signs of peri-implantitis, including bleeding on probing, suppuration, radiographic progressive bone loss and clinical pathologic probing depths.

Mechanical debridement was achieved using titanium scalers, an ultrasonic device with an implant protective cap and titanium brushes to remove all of the visible contaminants of the implant surface. Citric acid was then placed on shreds of a non-woven gauze and applied to the surface for approx. 1min. Copious irrigation was done using saline solution and the surface was ablated using the Er:YAG laser at 20pps/50mj.

After the surface was prepped and no signs of residual granulation tissue was noted, the defect was grafted with Geistlich Bio-Oss®. Attention was given towards not augmenting beyond the bony envelope.

A protective Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane was placed over Geistlich Bio-Oss®.

Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was placed over Geistlich Bio-Gide® to enhance soft-tissue volume and quality. Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was trimmed and adapted to the defect site ensuring a tension free closure.

Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was place on the top of the bone graft to enhance soft-tissue thickness. Geistlich Fibro-Gide® is porous. We can observe the rapid penetration of blood through the matrix.

Closure with a tension-free flap was achieved by releasing incisions and secured using 4-0 chromic gut sutures.

1.5 year post-operative photo and radiograph show the healing of the soft-tissues with no signs of peri-implantitis and adequate tissue thickening. Radiographic bone levels have maintained stable over the course of the year.

Alveolar Ridge Preservation with vallos® Mineralized Cortico-Cancellous Allograft

Preview

Preoperative radiograph of #31 with guarded prognosis due to potential root fracture and infection.

Atraumatic extraction was performed and intact furcation bone is noted.

vallos® mineralized cortico-cancellous bone allograft was placed.

A collagen plug was used to cover the bone allograft

Immediate post alveolar ridge preservation radiograph.

Healing at 2 weeks prior to implant placement.

Healing at 4 months prior to implant placement.

Implant was placed with 32 Ncm. Post implant placement radiograph.

6 months after the implant placement, the final restoration was delivered.

6 months following horizontal ridge augmentation, using Dr. Urban’s sausage technique, we re-entered the site for implant placement using a full thickness flap with no vertical incisions, to not disrupt collateral blood supply. There is excellent bone volume, but a very thin vertical soft tissue volume over the crest of the implant site.

Straumann implants are placed in sites #4 and #5 to a 25Ncm torque value with no issues and the cover screws were placed.

Geistlich Fibro-Gide® is placed crestally over the implants and draped to the buccal and slightly towards the lingual. Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was trimmed slightly to minimize the thickness of the material.

The flap was released so that we can achieve tension-free primary closure over the implant and the Geistlich Fibro-Gide® soft tissue augmentation site.

Following an 8 week healing period, we make a crestal incision and lay a conservative full-thickness flap to uncover the implants. We observe a 3-4 mm increase in verticle soft tissue thickness over the implant site.

We allow 3 weeks following the initial uncovering and can now see beautiful soft tissue architecture surrounding the implants.

Prior to the restorative process we see the pre-restorative radiograph with the healing abutments in place and we can also observe excellent crestal bone levels around the implants.

1 year follow-up. The restorative dentist opted to splint the crowns together. The patient did not want implants posterior to this area and he did not want any sinus augmentation as he had a history of sinus issues.
