Found 159 Results

1 - Pre-operative image showing the recession defect on tooth #6.

2 - After elevation of a partial thickness flap, the interdental papillae are de-epithelialized.

3 - Geistlich Mucograft® is placed over the defect and sutured to the papillae.

4 - The flap is coronally advanced and sutured completely covering the matrix.

5 - Follow-up after 1 week: healing of the surgical site.

6 - Follow-up situation after 4 weeks.

7 - Follow-up after 3 months.

8 - Follow-up after 6 months: note the natural appearance of the soft tissue achieved with Geistlich Mucograft®.

9 - Follow-up after 1 year.

Baseline: endodontic/prosthetic failure on the maxillary left lateral incisor.

The cone beam image shows the missing bony buccal plate.

Clinical situation following a minimally invasive, flapless extraction approach.

Geistlich Bio-Gide® Shape is inserted into the socket, with the long wing in contact with the buccal surface in order to recreate the cortical bone.

The socket is carefully grafted with Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen®.

The three remaining wings of Geistlich Bio-Gide® Shape are folded over the bone graft and gently secured inside the gingival sulcus. The membrane is then sutured to the surrounding soft-tissue with six single-interrupted sutures.

Implant placement can be planned 4 months after the ridge augmentation procedure.

4 weeks post-operative view with an open-healing approach, showing a positive soft-tissue response.

After flap elevation at 4 months, the new buccal bone plate can be detected, together with a completely filled alveolus. An implant can now be easily inserted into a fully healed ridge.

Clinical image of the final ceramic crown. An esthetic improvement can be noted when compared with the baseline image. The free gingival margin has been shifted in a coronal direction.

1 - Baseline occlusal view: situation before removal of tooth #20.

2 - Tooth removal and extraction socket management with Gesitlich Bio-Oss® and Geistlich Bio-Gide®.

3 - Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was trimmed to the defect size, to augment the buccal and crestal soft-tissue area of the ridge.

4 - Geistlich Fibro-Gide® in place, augmenting buccal and crestal area of tooth #20 and buccal in the edentulous area tooth #21 to tooth #19.

5 - Immediate provisionalization of the implants.

6 - 3 weeks post-surgery: occlusal view of augmented area with created emergence profile.

7 - 3 weeks post-surgery: buccal view of augmented area with created emergence profile.

8 - Provisional reconstruction 6 weeks post-surgery.

9 - Final restoration 2.5 years post-surgery: soft-tissue thickness remains stable over time.

1 - Occlusal view of the ridge after flap elevation.

2 - Longitudinal split of the alveolar crest by use of piezo-surgical instruments.

3 - Two implants are placed in the expanded crest.

4 - The split around the implants is filled with a mixture (1:1) of autologous bone chips from the retromolar area and Geistlich Bio-Oss®.

5 - The augmented ridge is covered with a Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane before closure of the soft tissue.

6 - Buccal view of the final situation.

7 - Occlusal view of the prosthetic outcome.

8 - X-ray findings 6 months after implant placement.

Pre-operative condition: Note that the gingival recession of 3-4 mm is evident as is the cervical root abrasions. The interdental papillae completely fills the embrasure space.

Incision design showing the sulcular incisions with horizontal incisions across the interdental regions ending with a remote oblique vertical releasing incision distal to the first bicuspid tooth.

The interdental papillae were de-epithelialized and Geistlich Fibro-Gide®was placed over the exposed roots extending onto the bone. Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was not secured with sutures.

Internal periosteal releasing incision was made to allow tension-free coronal advancement of the buccal flap to completely cover Geistlich Fibro-Gide®.The flap was secured with 5-0 Monocryl® sutures.

1-week post-operative visit: the healing looks good and sutures are intact. There was a small soft-tissue dehiscence at the buccal margin of the canine tooth.

Healing progressed well at 2 months post-operatively and the dehiscence defect seen at 1 week appears to be healing. Soft-tissue thickness is also evident at this stage.

At 6 months, 100% root coverage has been achieved. Note the increase in keratinized gingiva at the canine tooth where there was previously delayed healing. The patient is happy with the esthetic and functional outcome.

At 1 year, we can see root coverage has been sustained. Complete root coverage is not seen for the upper left bicuspid, not surprising given the tooth had an older restoration which was removed prior to grafting and the CEJ on the proximal surface is visible. Partial coverage was achieved however and is much more pleasing to the patient.

At 1.5 years, the tissue looks stable, healthy and esthetic. The patient is very happy with results thus far both from esthetic and functional standpoints. She is still free of sensitivity.

Pre-operative condition: Note that the gingival recession of 3-4 mm is evident as is the cervical root abrasions. The interdental papillae completely fills the embrasure space.

Incision design showing the sulcular incisions with horizontal incisions across the interdental regions ending with a remote oblique vertical releasing incision distal to the first bicuspid tooth.

Geistlich Fibro-Gide® is trimmed in a dry state to 10 x 15 x 6mm. The corners were trimmed for better adaptation and the matrix was then hydrated in sterile saline solution.

The interdental papillae were de-epithelialized and Geistlich Fibro-Gide®was placed over the exposed roots extending onto the bone. Geistlich Fibro-Gide® was not secured with sutures.

Internal periosteal releasing incision was made to allow tension-free coronal advancement of the buccal flap to completely cover Geistlich Fibro-Gide®.The flap was secured with 5-0 Monocryl® sutures.

1-week post-operative visit: the healing looks good and sutures are intact. There was a small soft-tissue dehiscence at the buccal margin of the canine tooth.

Healing progressed well at 2 months post-operatively and the dehiscence defect seen at 1 week appears to be healing. Soft-tissue thickness is also evident at this stage.

At 6 months, 100% root coverage has been achieved. Note the increase in keratinized gingiva at the canine tooth where there was previously delayed healing. The patient is happy with the esthetic and functional outcome.

1 - Pre-operative view of the atrophied ridge.

2 - Application of a 1:1 mixture of autologous bone and Geistlich Bio-Oss®.

3 - Geistlich Bio-Gide® is tightly fixed and pinned, thus immobilizing the particulate graft. The sausage-like augmentation allows extended horizontal augmentation.

4 - Primary wound closure is obtained with a combination of mattress and single-interrupted sutures.

5 - Sufficient amount of augmented bone for implant placement 8 months after augmentation. Implants are placed in a submerged procedure.

6 - Insufficient vestibular depth and keratinized tissue after alveolar ridge augmentation.

7 - Application of a keratinized strip towards the vestibulum and Geistlich Mucograft® over the augmented area where it is left exposed for healing.

8 - Situation before reopening for abutment connection after 3 months showing increased vestibular depth

Post adaptation with Geistlich Bio-Gide® for alveolar ridge preservation and guided tissue regeneration, followed by final suturing of the site using ePTFE material.

Radiographic overview of the clinical procedure: initial presentation with the bony defect impacting distal of #11 and #12 – mesial and inter-radicular, site after the tooth #12 was extracted, radiographic bone fill of the defect post-operative.
