Implant case

[Robert Gregg DDS]

Etienne,

With you obvious skills, the Nd:YAG just makes you all that better.

From experience, I’m sure you have new buccal bone. We know from the perio literature and other evidence (Yukna et all) that Nd:YAG is indeed osteoproductive.

Can you feel any bone on the buccal plate?

Hi Bob
Thanks for the compliment!
It feels like the buccal bone is intact and it also looks like it judging by the gingiva.
Osteoproductive is a new term for me. Would that be the same as “osteoinductive”?

I would definitely not want to be without a FRP Nd:YAG!! After everything is said and done I think it is also the laser with the highest ROI (financially…as well as clinically)
Take care
Etienne

That great Etienne!

If it looks like bone, feels like bone and tissues behave ass if there is bone, it is my 16 years of experience that it’s BONE baby!!

Take care,

Bob

hehehe 😉 …My thoughts exactly!

So, is “osteoproductive” the same thing as “osteoinductive”?

Yes, they are the same, as in osteogenic.
