Summary
This case study demonstrates effective ridge preservation using platelet concentrates and xenograft material after extracting a traumatically fractured tooth. This approach successfully facilitated predictable dental implant placement and restored function and aesthetics in an adolescent patient.
Area of Science:
- Dentistry
- Oral Surgery
- Regenerative Medicine
Background:
- Traumatic crown-root fractures in endodontically treated anterior teeth pose significant restorative challenges.
- Subcrestal fractures compromise tooth structure and alveolar bone, complicating treatment.
- Alveolar ridge preservation is crucial for successful implant rehabilitation and aesthetics.
