In the posterior mandible (lower right molar region), the edentulous site presented with insufficient hard and soft tissue volume.  A two-stage Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) surgery was performed to gain minor vertical height and major horizontal width, creating the necessary foundation for implant placement. Additional grafting for soft tissue thickness was performed with mucoderm^® in same surgery. GBR was performed with permamem^® membrane secured by NOVAMag^® fixation screws (2 lingually, 2 buccally). Grafting material was 50% cerabone^® plus and 50% autologous bone scraping placed on decorticalized site. After a healing period of six months, the augmented site exhibited adequate hard and soft tissue volume, allowing for successful implant placement with high primary stability.

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.
