IMMEDIATE POST-EXTRACTIVE IMPLANT REHABILITATION AND HETEROLOGOUS COLLAGEN-PRESERVED GRAFT IN LOWER POSTERIOR MOLARS

Use of equine-derived preserved collagen granules in peri-implant gaps.

This article presents two clinical cases of immediate postextractive implant placement on lower posterior molars associated with regenerative surgery using heterologous preserved collagen graft of equine origin (Osteoxenon cortical-cancellous granules, Bioteck Spa). The first clinical case deals with a 73-year-old woman who presented with the loss of the crown of 36 and a complete fracture of the residual tooth element at the level of the pulpal floor in which a postextractive implant was placed by exploiting the interradicular septum. The second clinical case, on the other hand, deals with a 65-year-old man with a coronal-radicular fracture of 46. Since it was also impossible in this case to retain the original tooth element, it was decided in favor of surgery with immediate postextractive implantation.
