Advanced approach - Late implant placement
Late implant placement is a reliable and conventional treatment option for every surgeon or in situations where bone regeneration is necessary. Geistlich biomaterials support alveolar ridge maintenance for late implant placement by providing a foundation for the development of all necessary tissue1,2.
Clinical case: Late implant placement with preserved bony buccal wall using Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen and Geistlich Mucograft® Seal.
Extraction of tooth 21 due to trauma with concomitant external resorption. Care was taken in preserving the alveolar bone.
Crestal view of the socket after tooth extraction. No flaps are raised around the affected area. A slight buccal bone defect was observed.
Filling of the extraction socket with Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen to the level of the palatal bone.
Suturing of the Geistlich Mucograft® with 6-0 single interrupted sutures.
Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen and Geistlich Mucograft® Seal preserve significantly more bone volume than spontaneous healing3.
Clinical case: Late implant placement with defect bony buccal wall using Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen and Geistlich Bio-Gide®.
Filling of the extraction socket up to the level of the crestal bone level using Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen.
Placement of the Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane over the defect.
Newly formed hard tissue 6 months post-op. Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen is not visible.
Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen and Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane provide the new bone formation1 needed for adequate and safe implant placement.
