Abstract
Bone volume is one of the key factors to be considered when evaluating implant placement. When the bone volume is insufficient, implant placement could be conditioned by the necessity of preforming bone grafting procedures to compensate bone loss. Various grafting procedures can be used with different bone substitute. Mineralized Plasmatic Matrix (MPM) is one of these grafting materials, used to maintain or regenerate the socket's volume. In MPM, the autologous blood products highly concentrated in platelets and fibrin in a liquid state are combined with a bone substitute. The fibrin can become bound to bone particles. The filling material is easy to shape and a PRF-type membrane is also generated. In the present case we report the application of MPM in two sites presenting bone crest defects when placing implant in those areas.
Highlights
Soft and hard tissue defects create an anatomically less favourable context for ideal implant placement
The success rates in autogenous bone graft are from 73.8% to 100% and 95.3–100%, in allogenic bone grafts [1]
The result obtained after the centrifugation was two layers: a yellow plasma liquid on the top of the tube separated from the red blood cells in its bottom
Summary
Soft and hard tissue defects create an anatomically less favourable context for ideal implant placement. Reconstruction of the alveolar bone through a variety of regenerative surgical procedures had become predictable [1, 4]. Autogenous, allogenic, and tissue engineered [5, 6] bone grafts are successfully used. Grafting materials and absorbable membranes [8] were proposed for postextraction alveolar ridge preservation. The filling material is easy to shape and a PRF-type membrane is generated [9]. The aim of this case report is to demonstrate that a onestep surgical procedure using a MPM graft around implant is suitable and successful in areas that have a narrow ridge
