Evaluation of Calcium Phosphosilicate (CPS) Based Graft Substitutes for Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) Around Dental Implants: A Case Series. Sudhindra Kulkarni+ Srinath Thakur++ Srinivas Katta*. May 2013

A 58 years old patient presented with a failed endodontic treatment that necessitated extraction of the involved tooth. A fenestration defect in the apical 1/3 was discovered during the sounding of the socket. An implant was placed and a conservative buccal flap was raised to visualize the fenestration (1). Granules were mixed with blood prior to placement at the site (2,3). A PRF membrane was placed over the graft prior to suturing (4). Four month follow-up image (5) shows tissue levels and contours were well maintained. A ten month follow up radiograph (6) demonstrates regenerated area with normal trabecular pattern.

A 42 years old patient presented with about 3-4 mm residual bone height (1) in the right maxillary posterior region. Sinus was accessed through a lateral window using piezo surgical system (2). The window was carefully removed (2) and the membrane was elevated (3). NovaBone granules mixed with blood was placed in the sinus using a bone carrier (4,5). 8-month postop radiograph revealed about 14mm bone height in the region and the trabecular pattern suggestive of natural bone (6).

A 25 years old patient presented with a history of traumatic tooth Avulsion. Visual inspection revealed a narrow ridge (approx. 2mm) in the region (1,2). Ridge Split (3) was performed using Piezo Surgical Tips and an implant was placed (4). Guided bone regeneration with Titanium Mesh and NovaBone (5) was chosen as the best possible option for building buccal bone. A 7-month re-entry to surgery to remove Ti-mesh showed excellent bone regeneration with healthy bleeding bone in the grafted area (6).

A 32 years old male patient presented with a sports injury resulting in a fracture of the maxillary right central incisor. The affected tooth was extracted, and the area was allowed to heal for 3 months. A buccal defect was noticed during osteotomy and a flap was reflected for better visualization (1). The implant was placed (2) and huge buccal dehiscence was noticed (3). GBR with NovaBone Granules mixed with blood and a slow resorbing collagen membrane was performed and sutured (4,5). During the second stage (4 months after implant placement), clinical picture (6) demonstrates excellent bone volume and contour.

A 65 years old patient presented with a history of traumatic tooth extraction and history of endodontic treated lower-left pre-molars. Visual inspection revealed a 3mm narrow ridge (1) in the region. Ridge Split surgery was performed with Piezo Surgical Drills (2) Implants were placed (3), Granules mixed with Blood was used to augment the bone (4) and covered with a Ti-mesh. Re-entry was performed at 8 months to remove the mesh and healthy regenerated bone was noticed in the region of the grafted area.

A 46 years old female with non medical pre-existing condition was referred for implant management in tooth 11 due to a non-restorable root fracture. A immediate implant was placed in palatal position.
