In this clinical case, a patient with critical state of periodontitis and extreme bone atrophy underwent full jaw reconstruction of the maxilla using cerabone^® plus combined with NOVAMag^® magnesium metal membrane. The procedure involved extensive bone augmentation to restore the jaw’s structural integrity and prepare it for implant placement. The xenograft material provided the necessary bone volume, while the magnesium membrane offered mechanical strength and supported the healing process by gradually resorbing, eliminating the need for secondary surgery. This approach ensured a stable, long-lasting foundation for dental implants. Subsequently, after 6 months five implants were placed and a fixed maxillary full arch was used to replace all the teeth in maxilla.

The „Case Of The Month“ highlights every month a clinical case, which distinguished itself by the clinical results or the treatment concept in combination with the applied botiss biomaterials. The selection of the case is based on content relevance and quality of the documentation.
