BioXclude Best Case Winner: Periodontology
This spring we requested your best cases, and today I am both honored and excited to share with you our winner for best case in the periodontology category, Robert J. Miller, DMD.
Robert J. Miller, DMD
Dr. Robert J. Miller, of Miller and Korn Periodontics and Implant Solutions in Plantation, FL has been a long-time contributor to Snoasis Medical’s case documentation efforts. Dr. Miller has not only authored numerous articles but has also lectured both nationally and internationally regarding dental implants and bone regeneration. Dr. Miller provides amazing case documentation with impressive long-term follow up, including some cases demonstrating over a decade of dedication and commitment.
Today we are pleased to showcase the trauma case Dr. Miller has submitted:
In this case, the patient sustained a fall causing a maxillary fracture and loss of tooth #7, 8, 9. An AlloGraft ring was used to place an implant at site #9, along with xenograft bone and a collagen membrane. An implant was also placed at site #7, using FDBA and BioXclude to regenerate the buccal place. As you can see from the final CT scans, both sides were equally successful.
