David; Good question. I am not sure why not. As for today, I would most likely use a similar approach but with a Tunnel Approach and PRGF/PRF instead. Thanks Dr. Salama

Maurice, In the absence of PRP can the alloderm be used as a carrier for the emdogain (enamel matrix derivative)? question from David Furnari ( DrDavidFurnari@gmail.com )

nice technique...
this was in 2007...
means 7 yrs ago,,, so what do think about this technique now ??
u still use it ???

Dear Dr.Salama. Thank you for the great presentation. I got three questions for you.
Is the complete submergence of the graft also necessary for palatal connective tissue grafts and if so - where is the root coverage effect beside the thickening of the tissue?
Why do you generally prefer connective tissue grafts? Is there a greater risk of inflammation with allografts? Do you therefore always have to use PRGF?
Don´t you risk the papilla with these flap designs. I wonder why the tunnel technique is not utilized in the other videos about alloderm as well - like Dr. Allen´s presentation.
Best regards.

Thank Dr. Maurice, is Emdogain a gel? and can I utilize with fibrine membrane (PRGF)?

Thank you

Terek; No difference in the way you suggest suturing and I prefer to trim the alloderm and any sharp edges. Most important not to have alloderm over vertical incision lines.

Tarek Ali - (7/18/2009 2:14 AM)
Hi Dr. Salama, thank you for the great video. I have two questions for you:
1. Would it make any difference if you were to secure the Alloderm individually first using something like 5-0 Vicryl first then coronally advance the flap to completely cover it ?
2. Is trimming the sharp edges of the Alloderm advantageous in any way or not ?
Once again thank you and looking forward to your reply.

Minimally Invasive Approaches for Managing Deficient Sites in Esthetic Implant Dentistry
When considering esthetic dental implant therapy, preservation or further enhancement of the available tissue support may provide an improved esthetic outcome with less associated morbidity and treatment duration. Nevertheless, reconstruction of compromised sites due to lost hard and soft tissue volume is often inevitable in the anterior zone. Substantial ridge deficiencies demand more complex grafting procedures with an increased level of invasiveness and subsequent tissue alterations.

The Science Behind the Papillae - Part 1 of 2
In 1992, Tarnow’s study on the effect of the distance from the contact point to the crestal bone on the presence of interproximal dental papilla gave us a new and ground breaking insight into the management of pink aesthetics. Later Team Atlanta furthered that study, analyzing the different measures between teeth, implants and pontics, giving us an even deeper understanding of how bone height influences in papilla growth.
In my understanding, this study was one of the most important in the history of dentistry due to its true crossover between dental surgery and the prosthodontic field, combining aesthetics, oral rehabilitation and oral surgery in treatment planning. Never has interdisciplinary dentistry been more valued.
This lecture will go over past and present techniques that can be performed to achieve an optimal aesthetic outcome in the managing of soft tissue.

Prosthetic Soft Tissue Development From Single to Full Arch Reconstruction
In addition to surgical intervention is the creation of the specific emergence profile that is essential in the aesthetic zone. The emergence profile composed of 2 parts, the abutment and the subgingival part of the crown. The shape of abutment can be individually shaped so that it gives natural appearance and varies individually (depending on the depth, angulation and diameter of the implant). Sometimes it even dictates the implant position. From a surgical perspective, soft tissue height, position and thickness need to be diagnosed and corrected when needed. From the prosthetic point of view, the emergence profile has to be created to mimic the natural appearance and maintained over time in respect to the biological changes. The course teaches step by step how to be successful with implant prosthetics from single tooth, partially edentulous to full arch reconstruction.

Managing Esthetic Implant Complications
Dental implant success today is judged not only by osseointegration but also by bone, tissue stability and of course long term esthetic results. Cosmetic predictability can often be difficult to attain, and esthetic implant failures can be multifactorial and patient management issues. Once esthetic implant failures occur, many cannot be fully corrected. Some complications must be addressed by an interdisciplinary dental team. In this summary of case reports, surgical considerations are provided, including cases of facial asymmetry/recession due to facial implant placement or bone loss resulting from technique/treatment failures, as well as papillary deficiencies. Restorative considerations for correcting failures are also discussed.

Biologic Width Adjacent to Loaded Implant with Machined and Rough Collars in the Dog
Dental implant surface technology has evolved from a relatively smooth machined implant surface for osseointegration to more roughened osteoconductive surfaces. Recent studies suggest that peri-implant soft tissue inflammation with progressive bone loss (ie peri-implantitis) is becoming a prevalent condition. One possibility that could explain sucha a finding is that more bacterial plaque forms on the roughened implant and abutment surfaces, which may result in the peri-implant inflammation if the soft tissues. This study compared 36 tissue-level implants with a machined transmucosal collar to 36 implants with a relatively roughened transmucosal surface in the dog. The results demonstrated that the connective tissue contact was similar between the two implant types but that the junctional epithelium and biologic width dimensions were greater around the implants with the machined collars...

Connective Tissue & Bone Graft for Anterior Immediate Implant Placement
Immediate implant placement in a one-stage approach, with or without provisionalization, has proven to be advantageous in preserving gingival anatomy around dental implants. But placing implants immediately in the changing alveolar bone of an extraction socket can result in progressive recession of the gingival labial margin over the implant restoration. Thicker biotypes and bone of the labial periimplant tissue have been shown to promote long-term stable gingival margins. A surgically simple technique…

Labial Bone Thickness in Area of Anterior Maxillary Implants Associated with Crestal Labial Soft Tissue Thickness
Soft tissue problems (ie, gingival recessions) are common in implantology and are often associated with thin soft tissue biotypes or buccally placed implants. Goaslind described 2 types of biotypes commonly found in the natural dentition: thick and thin. It has been suggested that thicker soft tissue biotypes are associated with less tissue recession, higher crestal bone levels, and better aesthetics. A thin tissue biotype has been shown to be more prone to tissue recession. Gingival recession is always associated with alveolar bone dehiscences. Furthermore, there is evidence that thick soft tissue may be protective against crestal bone loss (ie, tissue thickness of ,2.5 mm resulted in crestal bone loss of 1.45 mm vs. thicker tissues had 0.26 mm). This protective effect occurred, despite the supracrestal position of the implant-abutment interface.
