CLINICAL CASE | 11/2022
Dr. David Chávarri Prado
Due to periodontal disease, the patient (65 years) had a failure of the fixed prosthesis in the second quadrant and presented with severe bone atrophy, both in height and width. A lateral sinus lift and simultaneous GBR were performed using a 50/50 mix of cerabone® and maxgraft® granules and PRGF. The augmented area was covered and stabilized with Jason® membrane, which has a naturally long barrier function and high tear resistance. Six months later, at the re-entry very good bone reconstruction was achieved.
