CLINICAL CASE | 01/2024
Dr. Orlando D’Isidoro
This clinical case shows a three-dimensional bone regeneration of an atrophic posterior mandible. Two implants were inserted and simultaneously bone regeneration was performed by means of a d-PTFE membrane (permamem®) and a 40:60 mix of bovine bone substitute with hyaluronate (cerabone® plus) and autologous bone chips. The membrane was fixed by mini-screws on the lingual and cortical bone plate. After 4 months the surgical re-entry was performed and the soft tissues were thickened in horizontal and vertical volume, with a porcine dermal matrix (mucoderm®) to achieve at least 3.5 mm of mucosa. Two stay-in abutments were connected according to the concept of “One abutment- One time”. At the same time a vestibuloplasty was carried on the tooth 3.7 with mucoderm®. The prosthetic work was delivered with screwed zirconia crowns cemented on t-base abutments.
