Re-surgery following implant fracture

-

This year, a 74-year-old male patient visited us with a mini dental implant that had been placed in the lower jaw.

After 4 years of prosthetic use, one of the implants came loose and torn as seen in the picture.


The patient had a bar overdenture in place over the edentulous ridge.


These days, mini implants and similar approaches are receiving attention in the trend of minimalism. In this context, one of the primary considerations should be to provide sufficient strength.



Before the surgery
Implanted simultaneously with GBR four years ago

A week after the surgery.


2 weeks after.



4 months after
After the completion of the final prosthesis.


But, after 4 years, eventually.



 We need to start over from the beginning.

There is insufficient bone tissue below the implantation site. We are preparing a new product fixture. Surrounding autologous bone is collected. Synthetic bone and autogenous bone are used to cover the inferior area. Synthetic bone and autogenous bone are used to cover the inferior area.

Case of using SBA implant by OSSTEOBIONICS

I am currently a 55-year-old male. My oral condition has worsened over the past four years.  She planned extraction of the entire maxilla and fixed prosthetics using implants. First, the tooth was extracted and a temporary denture was installed.  Looking at the healing pattern.  Loss of buccal alveolar bone is seen.  The inferior basilar bone is rather exostotic.  There appears to be sufficient bone mass available. OssteoBionics' SBA implant was placed and submerged. We were able to obtain sufficient initial fixation for fixed temporary prosthesis. To evaluate the bone response of the SBA implant, a two-stage surgery was performed.  Autogenous bone, xenogeneic bone, and synthetic bone were transplanted into the surrounding defect area. This is what it looks like after the second surgery. The bone response is very good, a ll bone graft materials used were well maintained around the implant. This is what it looks like after the final prosthetics. I am a littl...
