Major Bone Augmentation: A Framework for Success
Ask a question!
Synopsis
Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to watch Dr Sascha A. Jovanovic perform a horizontal and vertical bone augmentation using Yxoss CBR® fully-protect and GEM21S® platelet derived growth factor (rhPDGF-BB). With Dr Chris Ho moderating, you will observe the advanced techniques involved in this specialised procedure.
For complex bone defects, needs will vary based on the position and extent of the defect, the patient’s anatomy, overall treatment requirements, and personal preference. The benefit of Yxoss CBR® Fully Protect is its fully microstructured surface that protects from tissue ingrowth. Having a dense microstructure across the complete scaffold allows for high stability and space maintenance, very easy removal, and enables good bone maturation due to a very well-vascularized tissue. By incorporating GEM21S® a recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor in the treatment plan, we will see improved remodelling of bone grafting materials and promotes faster blood supply to assist in the wound healing.
