Multimedia clip provided by Dr. James Sanderson, irmingham AL- Chin Block Harvesting – Creating Autogenous Bone Graft Product
WARNING – This video extremely GRAPHIC – The characteristics of jawbone frequently defines what type of bone grafting procedure will produce the best results in terms of predictability and long term endurance. In this video a male patient sustained an implant failure due to poor bone quality in the maxilla. It was determined that to augment the insufficient width and density of bone at the implant site, a solid piece of healthy bone would provide a solid foundation for recreating an “implant environment” that is second, only perhaps, to what mother nature provides. Surgery footage provided by Dr. Edward Brant of Long Island NY - Chin Block Graft Surgery – Autogenous Bone Grafting:
WARNING – This video extremely GRAPHIC – This multimedia presentation is comprised of detailed still photography that outlines the steps and procedures in a more radical form of replacing bone in the jawbones that uses the best source of graft material… that of the patient. EXTREME CLOSEUP PHOTOGRAPHY shows the harvesting process of creating Chin Block Graft material that is subsequently used for rehabilitating and re-fortifying areas of the jawbone that are the weakest. provided by Dr. Richard Winter of Milwaukee WI - Lower Jaw Bone Augmentation
WARNING – This video extremely GRAPHIC – Periodontitis requires removal of all diseased tissue and all teeth in the lower jaw. Grafting products including Puros Allograft and GTR membranes are used to rebuild what was lost to assure a healthy foundation for lower arch teeth replacement.Traditional and provisional implants are used to provide immediate dental function via a denture prosthetic with the planned goal of an implant supported bridge. - Diagnosing Healthy Osseointegration: Implant Loading
Implant failures are commonly caused by osseointegration failures that can be attributed to one or several complicating factors. Technologies do exist however for dentists, surgeons, periodontists and implantologists to objectively measure the amount and rate of osseointegration which is critical for determining when an implant should be loaded with the restoration crown(s) or prosthesis. Watch a animated clip demonstrating the Ostell Mentor device. Utilizing Resonance Frequency Pulses, it provides technical data that can have a dramatic impact on treatment success. - I-Cat 3 Dimensional Imaging Process
