Regenerative Approach for the Management of Peri-implant defects in healthy and peri-implantitis sites
This presentation will focus on the selection of regenerative approaches in the treatment of peri-implant defects. The presentation will review the most important steps of successful regeneration using GBR. Graft selection, stabilization and wound closure are essential part of bone formation. In the first part of the lecture defect classification and related decision tree will be discussed. This will enable the clinician to decide when and how it is possible to perform simultaneous GBR with implants and when a staged augmentation is selected. In addition, the Cheeseburger Technique using immediate implant placement in compromised sockets in the esthetic zone using GBR and soft tissue augmentation procedures will be presented.
Staged horizontal augmentation using the Sausage Technique TM will be explained in detail.
In the second part of the presentation regenerative approach in peri-implantitis defects will be described.
Transmucosal versus closed healing approaches using different graft materials and growth factors will be demonstrated. Surface decontamination is an essential part of the success of this therapy and implant macro as well micro design plays an important role of the success.
Non-confined, vertical defects around peri-implantitis involved implants are considered to be the most challenging. This presentation will also discuss surgical approaches treating these demanding defects around implants. A decision tree of techniques selection based on defect type when treating peri-implantitis will be presented. The reconstruction of significant defects after implant loss will be demonstrated.
