Implant replacement and GBR for the treatment of failed implants on augmented sinus area: A case report

Abstract

This was a case of peri-implantitis on augmented sinus area which resulted in removal of fixtures and graft materials. After thorough debridement, maxillary alveolar bone was reconstructed using a combination of autogenous bone from mandibular ramus and micromacroporous biphasic calcium phosphate. Re-implantation was followed by consolidation period of 3 months. 6 years after re-implantation, reconstructed site shows favorable healing and bone level height without further progression of bone loss. This study presents a successful outcome of the compromised alveolar bone status after peri-implantitis occurrence on the sinus augmented area.ope
