This technique, also called the “Sausage Technique”, is used in the back of the jaw, when there is not enough bone height to place several implants.
It is therefore a vertical bone regeneration. The gum is opened and separated well, so that it is loose to be able to surround the material that we will put underneath and which will have the shape of a sausage. The implants are placed, leaving two or three coils exposed. These spirals are surrounded with the patient's own powdered bone, which is obtained by scratching the most posterior and lateral part of the jaw with a curved scraper. A croquette of growth factors with biomaterial is placed on top.
On top of this, a long-lasting membrane is placed, fixed with thumbtacks, and which acts as a tent in which the masts would be the implants. The next layer is a fibrin membrane, on which the gum is sewn, which will remain distended. The implants must be unloaded for 9 months, that is, without placing the crowns or using removable eating devices. There may be paresthesia or tingling for a time. It is a complex and laborious technique that we try to avoid with very short implants.
Paciente de 78 años, sin antecedentes médicos de interés, no medicación habitual, no hábitos tóxicos.
Tras realizar saneamiento de las piezas maxilares abordamos la rehabilitación mandibular.
La 33 y el 36 se encuentran en estado periodontal terminal, la 35 presenta un buen estado estado periodontal, pero decidimos su exodoncia por razón de planificación quirúrgica y protética.
Colocamos Vulkan Conical: 2 x 3.75 x 13 a 32 y 42, 1 x 3.75 x 11.5 a 35 y 1 4.2 x 11.5 a 45. Regeneramos la zona del 35 y de otros defectos óseos con biotrituración de propias piezas exo muelle del hueso aspirada de la tuberosidad maxilar.
A las 6 semanas cambiamos tapones de cicatrización y aprovechamos para hacer colgantes para aumento de encía queratinizada en las zonas donde carecía.
Con el visto bueno del Ostell, confeccionamos híbrida All-on-four con mesoestructura de titanio y supraestructura de circonio Zirconzahn (laboratorio Pujol-Monné de Reus).
La rehabilitación de la parte maxilar se contempla en breve.
Male patient of 61 years of age with 24-25-26-27 pieces removed, edentulism in 15 and 17, and in 34-35-36-37. Eight months earlier we had removed an odontogenic cyst in the area of 37-38 with pathological A compatible with an odontogenic cyst.
After a year of follow up, the patient is clinically and radiologically well of his previous cystic pathology and we program exodontia of the pieces of the 2nd quadrant and placement of immediate Vulkan Internal Hex implants together with bone regeneration.
Implant placement is scheduled in 15-34-35 and 36. All this to rehabilitate up to the first molars.
