Dr. Jochen Tunkel:

This case is part of a Split-Mouth-Study, patient had a bilateral bone defect requiring three-dimensional augmentation and was treated with autogenous and allogeneic bone plates (maxgraft® cortico) in 4^th and 3^rd quadrant respectively. Augmentative relining with a xenogeneic bone substitute material (cerabone®) and collagen membrane (Jason® membrane) minimized resorption processes and maintained bone volume in the long term.

Both augmentation materials led to equivalent bone gains horizontally and vertically. Summary of the study

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.
