ZERAMEX® XT Case Report

This case documents a delayed placement of 2 ZERAMEX XT 5.5x10mm implants followed by immediate fixture level impressions and placement of healing caps. The patient traveled 2.5 hours to my office 4 weeks prior for removal of #19 and #30 with diagnosis of non-restorable and failed root canals. The teeth were extracted and grafted with platelet rich fibrin.

Patient arrived the day of implant surgery and modified osteotomies were performed in the delayed sites with no elevation of flaps. The implants were placed with ease achieving primary stability of 45Ncm. Fixture level impressions were taken the day of surgery and healing caps placed. The patient returned in 3.5 months for delivery of final crowns.
