Dr. Steigmann demonstrates implant placement and buccal bone augmentation in the anterior maxilla.
Dr. Steigmann is founder and director of the “Steigmann Institute” and maintains a private practice in Neckargemünd, Germany. He is associate of different internationally renowned universities and is member of multiple associations such as DGOI, FIZ, BDIZ and ICOI. Following flap preparation and granulation tissue removal, the implant is inserted into the deficient site. Small cerabone® particles are applied on the exposed implant surface at the buccal aspect and subsequently, Jason® membrane is used to cover the bone grafting material according to the principles of Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR). Finally, the flap is sutured tension-free to achieve primary wound closure.
