Septodont Case Studies: Post-extraction bone filling before implant placement

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.
