Her natural teeth had been extracted 20 years earlier without replacement, resulting in a significant horizontal ridge deficiency. It was explained to the patient that although implants represented an ideal treatment option, it would be necessary to simultaneously augment the bone to allow for optimum bone integration and stability of the implants. The patient agreed to the proposed surgical and prosthetic treatment plan. Two threaded, cylindrical, external hex Osseotite&reg; implants (3I, Implant Innovations Inc., Palm Beach Gardens, FL) were placed into the areas of #35 and #37. With optimum implant positioning, and given the horizontal resorption of the host bone in the area, approximately 5-6 threads were exposed on the buccal surface of the implant in site #35 and 3-4 threads on the buccal surface of #37 (fig. 1). 1.0 cc of DynaGraft&reg; II Putty (Citagenix Inc. Montreal, Quebec) was used to augment the deficient ridge and cover the exposed threads of the implants. DynaGraft&reg; II is a bioassayed DFDBA offering the inductive capability required to achieve regeneration of vital bone. DynaGraft&reg; II comes supplied pre-mixed in a reverse phase medium allowing for ease of handling and accurate placement of the material. With simple finger manipulation, the material can be molded into the ideal three dimensional shape to augment the deficient area (Fig. 2). Once in position, the viscosity of DynaGraft&reg; II reduces the risk of dislodgement during final placement, irrigation and flap closure. A 30x40mm Neomem&trade; (Citagenix Inc., Montreal, Quebec) GBR resorbable membrane was placed over the graft to assist in bone graft containment and to eliminate connective tissue and epithelial invagination into the surgical site (Fig. 3). Reapproximation of the flaps was achieved and tension free primary closure established utilizing 5-0 chromic gut sutures. A two stage submerged protocol was undertaken given the simultaneous GBR procedure. Healing was uneventful and the implants were uncovered at 9 months. Clinical evaluation confirmed the apparent regeneration of bone on the buccal aspect of the mandible with coverage of the exposed implants threads (Fig. 4). At this time, the implants were stable and integrated and 3i&rsquo;s emergence profile transitional healing abutments were placed. A soft tissue healing period followed for the next 6 weeks. Prefabricated, preparable GingiHue&trade; Post (3i) prosthetic abutments were inserted and the patient restored with a ceramometal cemented fixed bridge (Fig. 5). Without the assistance of augmentation materials, endosseous implants would be limited to only those patients that presented with alveolar ridges with adequate bone volume. The predictability of guided bone regeneration techniques has increased the number of implant candidates and has facilitated prosthetically driven restorations.<h4>Case 2: Autogenous Bone Graft Harvesting for Implant Dehiscence Defect Dr. Doug-Seok Sohn, Associate Professor, Chair Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Daegu Catholic University Hospital, Daegu, South Korea</h4><ul class="products-grid cols-3 first odd"><li class="item first"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-a.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig. 1: Bridge in place before extractions</li><li class="item"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-b.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig 2: Osteotomies using MIS drill guide</li><li class="item last"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-c.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig 3: Autogenous bone harvesting</li><li class="item first"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-d.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig. 4: RotoGrafter filled with graft</li><li class="item"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-e.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig 5: Dehiscence defects around implants</li><li class="item last"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-f.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig 6: Autogenous graft in place</li><li class="item first"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-g.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig. 7: Neomem Collagen membrane to protect grafted bone</li><li class="item"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-h.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig 8: Tension free primary closure</li><li class="item last"><img src="https://osseonews.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/ddsgadget-images/neomem-case-2-i.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> Fig 9: Post-op radiograph</li></ul>The patient presented with a fourunit bridge that was supported by the second premolar and third molar, which were both unsalvageable (Fig. 1). The bridge was removed, the two teeth were extracted and the site was allowed to heal for six weeks. In this case, no grafting material was used at the time of extraction.The treatment plan included three endosseous implants to be placed posteriorly to the first premolar to support a fixed prosthesis. At the time of the implant placement surgery, significant horizontal bone loss was observed. Implant sites for three MIS implants were prepared using the MIS drill guide (Fig. 2). Following this and prior to implant placement, an autogenous bone graft was harvested at the implant surgical site using the RotoGrafter&trade;. It was attached to a 16:1 contra-angle handpiece and the drill speed was set to 1000 RPM. The Rotografter was used to perforate the buccal plate inferior as well as distal to the implant sites, thus allowing bone to be collected without compromising implant placement (Fig. 3-5).Upon insertion of the three root form implants, dehiscence defects were noted ranging from 2mm to 5mm buccally and coronally around the implants. The 100% autogenous bone graft collected from the RotoGrafter was placed in the deficient areas (Fig. 6). A resorbable collagen membrane (Neomem, Citagenix Inc.) was used to cover the graft site and a tension free suture technique was employed to achieve primary closure (Fig. 7-8).*Cytoplast&reg; is a registered trademark of Osteogenics Biomedical, Inc.

<h2>PTFE Sutures Main Features and Benefits</h2><ul><li>Ultra sharp needle point for atraumatic tissue penetration. Needle is coated with silicone for smooth tissue passage.</li><li>Nonresorbable: Keeps the surgical site reliably closed</li><li>Monofilament Construction: Eliminates bacterial wicking. Thread is Undyed, Uncoated.</li><li>Excellent Soft Tissue Response: PTFE suture&#39;s unique softness and smoothness enables it to go through soft tissues minimizing micro- damage reaction around tissue duct, which prevents from bacterial colonization in deeper layers of the wound.</li><li>Biologically inert and chemically non-reactive: 100% Medical Grade PTFE</li><li>Promotes Wound Healing: In contrast to braided sutures, especially those made from absorbable materials, PTFE does not absorb blood, saliva, bacteria and food residues. This promotes wound healing.</li><li>Not subject to weakening by tissue enzymes: Despite its soft and delicate nature, PTFE firmly supports tissues during the whole healing process, in contrast to absorbable materials which maintain tissues only in the early stages of healing due to the presence of enzymes in the mouth.</li><li>Little or no package memory: soft handling and knots securely. The thread does not retain the coiled shape after unpacking, which makes it easier to work with.</li><li>Great fluency among tissues</li><li>Comfortable and soft for the patient: not stiff like most monofilaments. The surgical knot made with a PTFE suture is durable and does not loosen. The ends of the suture do not cause irritation of the cheek, lips and tongue, unlike suture materials based on various monofilament fibres, which additionally may contribute to the formation of viral changes on mucous membrane.</li><li>Ultra High tensile strength: does not weaken when moistened. Provides permanent support.</li></ul><h2>PTFE Suture Applications</h2>PTFE sutures thanks to being completely non-absorbable and biologically inert, cause minimal inflammatory response in the moist environment of the oral cavity, that&rsquo;s why they are an excellent choice for any:<ul><li>Bone grafting procedures&nbsp;</li><li>Soft tissue grafting&nbsp;</li><li>Guided tissue regeneration&nbsp;</li><li>Implant surgery&nbsp;</li><li>Periodontal surgery&nbsp;</li><li>Ridge aumentation&nbsp;</li></ul><h2>About PTFE Sutures</h2>The PTFE Suture, is monofilament, synthetic, non-absorbable surgical suture composed of 100% polytetrafluoroethylene without any additives. The suture undyed and uncoated.PTFE is a unique biomaterial in that it is inert and chemically non-reactive. In addition, the monofilament construction prevents bacterial wicking which is associated with braided sutures. Therefore, PTFE sutures are ideal for any implant, periodontal and bone graft surgery where the usage of a monofilament suture with low bacterial adhesion is recommended.

Horizontal PRF Centrifuge Case

The video below shows the use of the our Horizon 6 Flex Horizontal Centrifuge to produce both Liquid PRF and Solid PRF. The liquid PRF is then used to create a sticky collagen plug with our Bioplug Collagen Plugs. [3,4](Please note: Horizontal centrifugation is a swing-out mechanism process. This means that tubes are always at an angle at rest. However, when spinning starts, they swing out and spin at a horizontal angle out from the axis of rotation, and spin horizontally. This is as opposed to fixed angle centrifugation, where the tubes are always fixed at angle, even when spinning.)

Horizontal PRF Centrifuge Video

The short video below provides highlights from our recent PRF Course given by Dr. Brian Toorani. In the course, Dr. Toorani reviewed phlebotomy techniques and demonstrated centrifugation with both the classic fixed angle Choukroun protocols, and the newer horizontal centrifugation methods, using the DDSGadget <a href="">Horizontal Centrifuge</a>
