Oral surgery
Regenerative treatment of a site after osteonecrosis of the jaw Case captions: 1–2 Fistula in relation to the edentulous crest through which the bone crest can be probed. Cone beam sections show a fragment of necrotic bone. | 3 Intraoperative image of the necrotic bone fragment, corresponding to the vestibular cortex of the element previously extracted. | 4 The removal of the fragment is simple because of complete sequestration. | 5 The clinically healthy bone tissue is curetted and a generous layer of REGENFAST® is applied before wound closure by primary intention. | 6 The viscosity of the product allows it to remain in the intervention site. Contact with saliva would cause rapid dispersion in the oral cavity. | 7 After the suture, the excess part of the product is applied on the suture line. | 8 Perfectly healthy tissues with no signs of pathology three months after the surgery. | 9 The intraoral radiographic image confirms the bone healing of the treated site.

Why did I use REGENFAST ® ?
Case description:
I used REGENFAST® to stimulate the healing of the surgical site. The action of polynucleotides associated with hyaluronic acid seems to speed up soft- tissue healing. This aspect is essential to increase the chances of bone healing in patients at risk of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.
Following the extraction of tooth 42, a drug-induced osteonecrosis was diagnosed and treated. One week after the treatment, the clinical picture had improved and the symptoms were significantly reduced.
