Matribone in the socket and in the sinus + CO- VAMAX collagen membrane. Case 2: Biopsy after 12 months 57 year old female, extraction 29-26, 25 missing, bone height in 25: 4 mm. Treatment: sinus lift lateral approach with MATRIBONE and COVAMAX. 5. Set the implant (s) Don’t drill a too wide socket to make sure your implant will be tightly screwed, even with a thin bone. If your implant is not stiff, you will have no healing! Plug your graft around the im- plant to ensure a close contact and a stable graft. 6. Close the window (the show is almost done). For good set a membrane as a shield for 2 purposes. - Avoid any migration of the graft - Avoid any invagination of the soft tissues inside the cav- ity. For what I have seen, the best is COVA MAX de BLOM UP: originally developed for car- diology, this membrane: 100% biosynthetic collagen type I. COVAMAX is hydrated in physiological serum. It can be cut, sutured. It is stable, trans- parent and resorbable in 3 months. It can be exposed up to 3 weeks. 7. Stitch First, make sure your flaps are loose enough to be close with- out tension. For good: - Make single loops - Stab not to close to the slot - Start on a stiff part, not far from the middle, to make sure you will have no staggering be- tween the two edges. Your patient should clean quickly without losing the su- tures! For 3 years now, I have used only COVA MAX and MATRI- BONE of BIOM UP. After hav- ing tried most of what is avail- able on the market, I really feel I have found what we all look for: an easy and predictable tool. If ever I may be a help for you, feel easy, in the mind of the Pierre FAUCHARD Acad- emy, the international Acad- emy of dental surgery, the door is always open and I have stocks of COVA MAX and MA- TRIBONE for those who would like to try. For centuries, gifted col- leagues have improved the knowledge. You have the skills, use the best tools. What you will get is a safe, ef- ficient and predictable result.

New coating could eliminate implant failure risk ByDentalTribuneInternational T ORONTO, Canada: Although their success rate has been reported as about 98 percent, dental implants can fail owing to bio- logical and technical issues over time. In many cases, the body’s inflammatory response causes rejection. Canadian research has now presented a new implant coating that helps disrupt this immune mecha- nism to prevent both the risk of implant failure and the need for anti-inflammatory drugs. The disruptive new anti-in- flammatory polymer was de- veloped by Dr. Kyle Battiston, a postdoctoral fellow at the Fac- ulty of Dentistry and a recent graduate from the Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Toronto. It was originally designed as a tissue-engineer- ing scaffold that allows tissue engineers to grow cells suc- cessfully. Battiston and his colleagues were able to coat implants with the biomaterial, which is derived from a family of poly- mers found to reduce inflam- mation, specifically when it in- teracts with white blood cells, and discovered that the coat- ing calms the body’s immune response. “We’ve learned this family of materials can retain its anti- inflammatory character while adapting diverse physical properties,” said Battiston. The material could thus be used for a wide variety of medical treat- ments. Battiston plans to market the coating through his new start- up company KSP2 within the next five years. According to the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, 3 million Americans already have dental implants and this number is growing by 500,000 a year. About 10 percent of all U.S. dentists place implants to- day. The association estimates that the U.S. and European market for dental implants will reach $4.2 billion by 2022.
