About this video
A patient suffered significant bone loss due to chronic infection around failed maxillary implants. Treatment included implant removal, thorough debridement of infected tissue, and bone augmentation comprising ridge preservation, maxillary sinus augmentation, and vertical augmentation with autologous bone graft (OBG) harvested from the mandibular ramus. Despite the pre-existing infection, successful healing and bone regeneration were achieved in a single procedure. Six months later, implants were placed, followed by implant uncovering six months post-implantation.
