Innovative Treatments for
Major Bone Augmentation

Tooth loss, trauma or tumor resection can lead to large bony defects in the alveolar ridge. In these situations, reconstructive measures are indicated to augment the quantity of bone.

Traditional Solutions for
Major Bone Augmentation

Creating a stable and regenerative environment in large bony defects can be invasive, time consuming and unpredictable.

Tenting or Screw “Tent-Pole” Grafting Technique

Tenting of the periosteum and soft-tissue matrix using titanium screws to maintain space, minimize resorption of the graft material, and prevent soft tissues from contracting around the particulate graft.

Shell Technique

Autogenous bone plates are harvested and prepared. The plates are shaped according to the size of the defect and then fixed with titanium screws which provides structural support and the necessary space for the full incorporation of the particulate graft material.

Ridge Splitting

The segmental ridge split procedure in an atrophic ridge allows expansion of the ridge. A particulate graft is placed within, which eliminates the need for a second surgical site.

Titanium Reinforced PTFE

When placed over the graft material, titanium reinforced PTFE membranes provide additional stability for augmentation of defects outside the bony envelope.

Distraction

Distraction osteogenesis, or bone lengthening, is a surgical procedure which involves cutting and slowly separating bone, allowing the bone healing process to fill in the gap.

Bone Blocks

Autogenous blocks of bone are harvested from the posterior of the mandible. The block is placed directly into the defect and fixed in place with titanium screws.

Interpositional Grafting

This technique requires interposing a bone graft between osteotomized bony segments, which acts as a “sandwich” and provides good vasculature to both the bony segment and the graft.

Conventional Ti-Mesh

A titanium mesh is shaped to the desired ridge shape and is placed in conjunction with a bone graft. This method provides rigid fixation and assures space maintenance. Exposure of the mesh the predictability of the graft volume can be compromised.

An added innovation designed for easy removal

Dense microstructure for apical edge zones*
* Manufacturing result may visually differ from rendered microstructure

Ridge Incision Technique31

Once Yxoss CBR® is placed and the augmentation is performed according to the principles of guided bone regeneration, the flap can be mobilized by a periosteal releasing incision deep in the vestibular area. This will allow tension-free flap closure.

Poncho Technique31

This poncho technique is preferred in pronounced vertical defects. After incision, preparation of a mucoperiosteal flap, debridement of scar tissue, and exposure of the defect is conducted. A passive tension-free fit of the Yxoss CBR® is then ensured.

Supertack Anatomy

Head

1 The top side, has a diameter compatible with most available existing systems. The carefully studied profile is easily grabbed with the tip of the placement instrument. 2 The unique beveled edge offers easy removal action, while the underside surface(facing the bone) is flat 3, which provides a stable, uniform pressure on the membrane.

Stem/Shank

4 The conical shank rises from the head with a diameter substantially greater than that of other systems. This, along with the radius of the connection, 5 greatly increases resistance to bending. The taper of the stem, which allows for easy removal, requires a retentive collar 6 that uses the natural elasticity of the bone for locking the tack. The calibrated tip 7 is sufficiently sharp for penetration in dense bone and was developed at an angle close to 90° to obtain a high flexural strength. Incorporating these features 4 – 7 in a 3 mm shank allows the SuperTack to penetrate a high-density cortical bone where previously considered impossible.

The cobalt blue is result of an anodization process of the titanium and facilitates detection under soft tissues. Decontamination, plasma cleaning, clean room packaging and sterilization, all follow parameters of absolute excellence.

Geistlich Bio-Oss®, Geistlich Bio-Gide®, Yxoss CBR®
Surgical procedure, step-by-step Dr. Marcus Seiler MSc MSc Filderstadt, Germany
Clinical challenge:
  • The planning of the patient’s case takes local and general patient-specific risk factors into consideration according to the principles of backward planning for implant positioning.
Aim / Approach:
  • Highlights step-by-step the important procedures to regenerate the bone (horizontal and vertical) with the 3-D printing technology, Yxoss CBR®.
1 - The basis for planning implant therapy is clinical and radiological diagnosis with a CBCT scan.
2 - A precise 3-D planning model will be created based on CBCT data. Adaptations of the exact shape are possible, depending on the surgeon’s preference and feedback.
3 - The usual oral surgery and implantology hygiene provisions apply for the use of Yxoss CBR® intraoperatively. The same applies to patient medication.
4 - The opening incision should be designed in accordance with the extent, location and with respect to the anatomical structures of the region to be augmented.
5 - Subsequent steps are the preparation of a mucoperiosteal flap, debridement of scar tissue and the exposure of the defect. Sufficient blood supply of the flap is favored by a flap with a wide base.
6 - Autologous bone can be harvested from the usual intraoral donor sites and can be mixed with bone substitutes (e.g. Geistlich Bio-Oss®).
7 - The Yxoss CBR® is initially filled with autologous bone and bone substitute material (e.g. Geistlich Bio-Oss®).
8 - Yxoss CBR® is fixed on the existing residual bone with an osteosynthesis screw. The titanium screw can generally be introduced, depending on the intended position, through any opening of the titanium grid. The edges of Yxoss CBR® rest on the underlying bone tissue.
9 - A resorbable membrane (e.g. Geistlich Bio-Gide®) should be placed over the Yxoss CBR® to prevent ingrowth of soft-tissue and to support soft-tissue regeneration over the titanium frame.
10 - The wound should be closed completely whenever possible. The mucoperiosteal flap is positioned tightly but tension-free over Yxoss CBR® with single interrupted and deep mattress sutures. Pressure on the augmented crest has to be avoided. Dentures are not to be applied.
11 - Before reopening, clinical and radiological diagnosis are to be taken into consideration.
12 - Reopening of the augmented site approx. 4 to 6 months post surgery and depend on the defect geometry, at latest 9 months after initial surgery.
13 - After removing the fixation screws, Yxoss CBR® can be easily removed using preset breaking points
14 - Newly formed vital bone is regenerated up to the contour defined by the shape of the Yxoss CBR®.
15 - Insertion of implants into the augmented alveolar ridge according to the prosthetic position.
16 - Prosthetic restoration is carried out in accordance with the usual precautions.
17 - Follow-up and radiological evaluation should be performed according to the standardized recommendations of the respective dental societies.
18 - Clinical and radiological imaging of long-term outcome in this case at 5-year follow-up.
