Regenerative treatment of peri-implantitis
A systematic review of regenerative measures following anti-infection treatment revealed that peri-implantitis lesions can be effectively filled with bone substitute materials1. Geistlich Bio-Oss® provides more stable radiographic bone fill in peri-implant lesions compared with autogenous bone2.
When defect fill of peri-implantitis defects is required, use of Geistlich Bio-Oss® in combination with a Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane results in marked clinical improvement3.
Clinical case: Surgical regenerative treatment of a peri-implant bone defect with a favorable long-term result.
Radiological image showing the crater like peri-implant bone defect. Excess cement was previously removed in the non-surgical phase.
Geistlich Bio-Oss® was used to fill the defect around the decontaminated implant surface. A Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane was placed over the Geistlich Bio-Oss® granules, around the neck of the implant.

Bony defects caused by peri-implantitis can be regenerated with Geistlich Bio-Oss® bone graft material in combination with a Geistlich Bio-Gide® membrane.
