IMPLANT THERAPY OUTCOMES; SURGICAL ASPECTS Presented at 45 patients (20 male, 25 female, mean age 41.3 ± 13.07 years) received 50 implants and were followed for 1.8 ± 1.3 years (range: 3 months - 4.5 years) Stable peri-implant tissue volume from pre-op to post-op independent of the time of follow-up (n=26 sites; -0.15 ± 1.18 mm for all data points; Spearman’s rank correlation: ρ=0.150, P=0.073; Fig 3) Healthy matrix integration (n=3 sites; healthy vascularization and no signs of inflammation; elastin remnants could be detected in 2 biopsies after 62 and 96 days) Excellent soft tissue health (92% of implant sites had a Jemt-papilla-index of 3, 70% of implant sites has 3 mm of keratinized mucosa, 78% of implants had no bleeding on probing) Low complication rate (only 2 exposed matrices at 1 week post-surgery, resulting in a matrix exposure rate of 4%) 100% implant survival and success P-SU-033 Soft tissue augmentation with a collagen-based 3D matrix with directed pore channels Bastian Wessing 1 , Bouke Boekema 2 , and Oscar González-Martín 3 1 Dental Practice Clinic, Luisenhospital, Aachen, Germany 2 Association of Dutch Burn Centres, Beverwijk, The Netherlands 3 University Complutense of Madrid, Madrid, Spain, and The University of Iowa School of College & Dental Clinics, Iowa City, USA Following tooth extraction, the buccal side of the alveolar ridge often undergoes physiological resorption. 1 During dental implant surgery, soft tissue augmentation with gingival grafts is used to enhance esthetics by maintaining or reconstructing a convex contour of the alveolar ridge. 2,3 Autologous grafts are common but pose several disadvantages, including the need for multiple surgical sites, postsurgical discomfort, and limited availability of tissue volumes, which has led to the development of alternative graft substitutes. 4-6 The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical performance of a porcine-derived native collagen-elastin-based three-dimensional matrix with a modified interconnecting pore structure (CMG) used for soft tissue volume augmentation. This retrospective analysis demonstrated that CMG promotes soft tissue health and maintains adequate soft tissue thickness when used simultaneously with implant placement. The histological findings demonstrate excellent biocompatibility of CMG and indicate this matrix as a valid alternative to autologous grafts. Further well-designed randomized clinical studies are encouraged to validate these early promising results. 1. Schropp L, Wenzel A, Kostopoulos L, Karring T.

• Excellent soft tissue health (92% of implant sites had a Jemt-papilla-index of 3, 70% of implant sites has ≥ 3 mm ofkeratinized mucosa, 78% of implants had no bleeding on probing)

• Low complication rate (only 2 exposed matrices at 1 week post-surgery, resulting in a matrix exposure rate of 4%)• 100% implant survival and success

Following tooth extraction, the buccal side of the alveolarridge often undergoes physiological resorption.1 Duringdental implant surgery, soft tissue augmentation with gingivalgrafts is used to enhance esthetics by maintaining orreconstructing a convex contour of the alveolar ridge.2,3

Autologous grafts are common but pose severaldisadvantages, including the need for multiple surgical sites,postsurgical discomfort, and limited availability of tissuevolumes, which has led to the development of alternativegraft substitutes.4-6 The aim of this retrospective study was toevaluate the clinical performance of a porcine-derived nativecollagen-elastin-based three-dimensional matrix with amodified interconnecting pore structure (CMG) used for softtissue volume augmentation.

This retrospective analysis demonstrated that CMG promotessoft tissue health and maintains adequate soft tissue thicknesswhen used simultaneously with implant placement. Thehistological findings demonstrate excellent biocompatibility ofCMG and indicate this matrix as a valid alternative toautologous grafts. Further well-designed randomized clinicalstudies are encouraged to validate these early promisingresults.
