Case Study

Ridge Augmentation following Implant Removal Due to Peri-Implantitis with OSSIX Agile™

Dr. Theofilos Koutouzis, DMD MS

Background

A 70-year-old diabetic patient presented with peri-implantitis in the region of tooth #5, along with a reduced periodontium and horizontal and vertical deficiencies in tooth #6.

Case Description

Due to the hopeless prognosis of implant #5, the treatment plan involved its extraction and simultaneous augmentation of both the #5 and #6 sites to facilitate future implant placement. Clinical assessments revealed a significant 70% bone loss around implant #5 and a 3-4 mm vertical deficiency at the #6 site. Radiographic evaluation confirmed these findings. To support bone regeneration and enhance the surgical procedure, we utilized OSSIX Agile™ Membrane (20*30 mm), Particulate Allograft (1.0cc) for bone support, and Meisinger Tacks (3mm) in two units. Read more in the attached case study for further details.
