Overview
Dental professionals frequently encounter cases where congenital tooth absence requires thoughtful planning and precision. In this case study, we demonstrate the successful use of Alpha-Bio Tec’s MultiNeO™ implant with Nano Hydrophilic Surface (NiNA™) for the reliable replacement of a congenitally missing lateral upper incisor. The case demonstrats the effective use of advanced implant solutions for achieving clinical success.
Understanding the Patient’s Condition
The patient, a 22-year-old non-smoking male, presented with a congenitally missing lateral incisor in the upper jaw. He was also undergoing orthodontic treatment at the time of consultation. The clinical evaluation revealed moderate bone resorption in the area designated for implant placement, a common situation in cases of congenital tooth absence.
The Treatment Plan
A treatment plan was developed to restore the missing lateral incisor while considering the patient’s orthodontic treatment and bone condition. Advanced imaging techniques, including CBCT scans, were used to evaluate the bone and surrounding structures and guide implant placement.
Alpha-Bio Tec’s MultiNeO™ implant was selected due to its tapered design and bioactive Nano Hydrophilic Surface, which enhances osseointegration. A 3.2 mm diameter and 11.5 mm length implant was chosen to fit the available bone dimensions.
Surgical Phase and Implant Placement
The surgical procedure involved placing a MultiNeO™ implant in the prepared site. The design of the implant, with its tapered shape and hydrophilic surface, contributed to its stability and integration. Ensuring correct positioning was key to achieving a reliable outcome and supporting future restoration.
Post-Operative Progress
Post-operative imaging taken 63 days after implant placement confirmed successful integration of the implant with the surrounding bone. The outcome demonstrated a stable foundation for the final prosthetic restoration, ensuring both functional and aesthetic improvement.
Final Restoration
Following the successful integration of the implant, the prosthetic phase was initiated. A custom-made restoration was designed to complement the patient’s natural dentition, restoring the function and appearance of the missing tooth.
Key Success Factors
Several factors played a significant role in the success of this treatment:
- Implant Selection: The use of Alpha-Bio Tec’s MultiNeO™ implant with its tapered design and bioactive surface supported reliable osseointegration within the bone environment.
- Advanced Imaging: Preoperative CBCT scans provided critical information for accurate treatment planning and implant placement.
- Treatment Plan Development: Careful consideration of the patient’s clinical condition, including bone resorption and ongoing orthodontic treatment, ensured an effective approach.
