Treatment of peri-implantitis with surface decontamination and particulate bone graft in a smoker patient

Introduction: With the increase of implant-supported rehabilitation, the cases of patients with peri-implantitis become more frequent. Objective: To report the treatment of peri-implantitis by associating techniques of surface decontamination and particulate bone graft. Case report: The treatment was carried through curettage of the granulation tissue, mechanical bone decontamination withbicarbonate jet, chemical decontamination with tetracycline solution, and particulate graft in the place of the bone defect. Conclusion: After 45 postoperative days, the peri-implant tissues were health without inflammation. After 6 postoperative months, the bone defect was repaired.Introduction: With the increase of implant-supported rehabilitation, the cases of patients with peri-implantitis become more frequent.

Esthetic rehabilitation of anterior teeth through gingival recontouring and ceramic veneers: a case report

Esthetic rehabilitations require a broad and thorough evaluation of all the elements that make up the smile such as lips, dental, and periodontal structures to plan the treatment to provide harmony to the whole set. Objective: To demonstrate through a case the association of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry in the esthetic rehabilitation of anterior teeth replacing resin restorations by modifying the gingival architecture conservatively and harmonically. Case report: It is essential for a multidisciplinary approach to succeed in treatment. The replacement of previous restorations is an increasing demand in currently clinical practice, for many reasons, mainly due to dissatisfaction with the esthetics. It is observed that many of these patients involve not only dissatisfaction with the dental structure but also with the periodontal health, for this reason, it is necessary a previous adaptation of the gingival tissues for proper restorative rehabilitation. Conclusion: Ceramic laminates have proved to be a great choice for anterior teeth restorations, but they must be indicated in specific situations, to obtain excellent results as most conservative as possible.Esthetic rehabilitations require a broad and thorough evaluation of all the elements that make up the smile such as lips, dental, and periodontal structures to plan the treatment to provide harmony to the whole set.
