Treatment in the Posterior Area
Clinical case: Posterior periodontal regeneration: resolving an extensive three-wall defect caused by a cemental tear.
Case by Dr. Diego Capri, Bologna, Italy
Clinical and radiographic view of the affected area showing the lesion likely caused by a cemental tear.
The root surface is thoroughly scaled and planed and the defect is filled with a mixture of autogenous bone and Geistlich Bio-Oss®.
A trimmed Geistlich Bio-Gide® collagen membrane is positioned on top of the augmented area.
Primary wound closure is achieved, after proper releasing of the flap with internal mattress and single interrupted sutures.
4 months after periodontal regenerative surgery, the clinical and radiographic views show the successful healing of the defect.
Geistlich Bio-Oss® and Geistlich Bio-Gide® Perio help restore soft and hard tissue.
CAUTION
Federal law restricts these devices to sale by or on the order of a dentist or physician.
