Initial clinical and radiographic presentation shows buccal soft tissue enlargement and bone loss #21-22 area.

Clinical facial view showing full thickness flap reflection with complete enucleation of cystic lesion (excisional biopsy).

Clinical view showing hydration of vallos®f and Geistlich Bio-Oss® as two separate grafts.

Clinical facial view showing placement of vallos®f internally for maximum osteogenic/osteoinductive potential and Geistlich Bio-Oss® externally for space maintenance.

Clinical facial view showing placement of Geistlich Bio-Gide® covering the defect and extending one tooth mesillay and distally.

Clinical facial view showing primary closure using 6-0 prolene sutures.

CBCT immediately post-surgery showing radiolucent allograft internally for osseoinduction and radiopaque xenograft externally for space maintenance.

After flap elevation at 4 months showing, the new buccal bone plate together with a completely filled alveolus.

Clinical facial views showing healing at 2 and 4 weeks with proper soft tissue healing.

6 months post-surgery radiographic presentation showing stable periodontium and proper bone fill #21-22 area.

Comparison of pre- and post-surgical CBCT views showing good bone formation.

Comparison of pre- and post-surgical clinical views showing stable periodontium.

Pre-operative Condition

Bone graft placement, saturated with rhPDGF-BB

Collagen membrane placement

After six months, healing was complete, resulting in a 10×10×6.5 mm bone fill. Tooth #7, which was part of the combined defect, was fully regenerated.

The adjacent ridge defect was also restored, enabling the placement of a standard-sized implant without the need for additional grafting.

Pre-operative assessment demonstrates minimal zone and thickness of buccal keratinized gingiva, with a medium periodontal phenotype.

Pre-operative CBCT with virtually planned implant placement. A thin buccal plate (<1mm) is measured. Good apical bone is noted for the placement of a Straumann® 12mmx4.1mm bone level tapered implant.

Minimally invasive removal of #12 using only a buccal approach mini-flap showing an intact buccal plate with immediate placement of the implant (1 mm below the intact buccal wall) in a screw-retained position. A 3mm buccal gap is measured and a 1.5mm palatal gap.

Both the buccal and palatal gaps have been packed with Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® hydrated with Gem 21S. It’s my preference to squeeze Geistlich Fbro-Gide® between thumb and forefinger, prior to placement. A dry-carved piece of Geistlich Fibro-Gide® is in position thinned approximately 2mm with beveling laterally and coronally with a new #15 blade.

Geistlich Fibro-Gide® in place facial to the intact buccal wall under a full thickness buccal approach mini-flap. Immediate contour management was completed using an Anatotemp® for a maxillary bicuspid tooth.

Suturing completed using 4-0PTFE and 5 -0 polypropylene non-resorbable sutures. Anticipated short-term 25% post-operative swelling is discussed with the patient.

3 months post-operative appointment showing a well-developed subgingival transition zone created with immediate contour management. A reverse torque test was completed, and the case proceeded to completion.

9 month post-operative view with final screw-retained crown in place. Good interproximal papilla healing is noted with thickening of the buccal periodontal phenotype compared with Fig. #1. (Restorative Therapy: Drew Shulman DMD, MAGD; Philadelphia, PA)

Clinical presentation of tooth #31 showing radiographic evidence of bone loss, profuse bleeding on probing (BOP), deep probing depths, and suppuration, indicative of peri-implantitis with a Class I-infraosseous (c) circumferential-type defect, as described in the study by Monje et al. (2019) Clin Implant Relat Res, 21(4)635-643.

Crown removal by the prosthodontist, followed by placement of a healing abutment for non-surgical therapy using PerioFlow®. After therapy, a cover screw was placed, and the tissue was allowed to heal over the implant for eight weeks.

Surgical treatment initiated with a midcrestal incision and full-thickness flap elevation. Granulation tissue was removed using a surgical curette, revealing a deep infrabony defect.

Implant thoroughly decontaminated using Perioflow® with erythritol powder to ensure a clean surface for regeneration.

rhPDGF-BB was used to hydrate bone grafting materials (vallos® Demineralized Cortical Granules and Geistlich Bio-Oss®), which were first hydrated with sterile water before rhPDGF-BB was added. The materials were mixed in a 1:1 ratio and allowed to sit for 10 minutes before being applied to the deep infrabony defect to promote regeneration.

Flap closed primarily with 5-0 PTFE horizontal mattress and single interrupted suture for secure closure.

Collagen membrane stabilized with 5-0 chromic gut sutures using the lasso technique.

After 5 months of healing, significant bone gain is evident. Geistlich Bio-Oss® was placed on the buccal site to enhance thickness, covered with an amnion-chorion membrane. A healing abutment was placed at this stage.

Two-year follow-up shows disease resolution with shallow probing depths, no bleeding or suppuration, and complete bone gain. A new crown was fabricated with an increased final abutment height (>2mm), contributing to optimal maintenance and long-term stability based on evidence supporting its role in promoting long-term success. A second surgery may be necessary to gain additional tissue thickness or cover residual thread exposure to achieve the desired long-term results.

Baseline full-mouth intra-oral view: the residual maxillary teeth were preliminarily reconstructed with a composite mock-up. The horizontal atrophy of the posterior areas of the maxilla is clearly visible.

The cone beam, realized with a radio-opaque diagnostic template, shows inadequate bone volume for implant placement in all the analyzed sites.

The use of the diagnostic template during the augmentation procedure helps to highlight the presence of bone defects in relationship to the restorative plan and future position of implants.

Large Geistlich Bio-Oss® particles are directly applied inside the sinus with Geistlich Bio-Oss Pen®.

The Geistlich Bio-Gide®, fixed with titanium pins is used to protect and stabilize the augmented site. As the surgical template shows, the bone augmentation is based on the future restorative project following the principle of PGR.

The same surgical procedure is performed on the left posterior side of the maxilla.

Cone-beam 6 months after surgery and prior to implant placement. The relationship between the template used for diagnosis and the bone crest reveals adequate bone volume to place implants in the correct prosthetically driven position.

Implant placement was guided by the same template utilized for diagnosis and bone augmentation.

Final view of the prosthetic reconstruction demonstrates bio-mimetic integration of implant-supported prostheses and ceramic veneers bonded to residual natural teeth.

The panoramic radiograph shows adequate integration of the implants and absence of peri-implant bone resorption.
