CLINICAL CASE I By Dr. Bruno Salou
Case Report
Clinical signs
A 55‑year‑old patient presented with signifi cant mobility in tooth 36.
A retro‑alveolar radiographic examination showed a level 3 furcation defect preventing the preservation of the tooth.
Diagnosis
The decision was made to extract the tooth and perform bone filling so as to permit implant placement.
Conclusion
The packaging of R.T.R.+ / MBCP® Technology in pre‑filled syringes facilitates the handling and placement of the material.
The conglomerate formed with clotted blood helps to ensure the retention of the material within the alveolus, an essential element for good bone healing.
