Clinical
method
Fig. 9 Positioning of
the fibrin glue with a two-way syringe and the aid of a celluloid mould
placed in the bone defect to ensure proper fitting of the glue to the distal
surface of the root.

presented at the SidP congress in Catania in 1987 which summarizes the method
used in isolating the periodontal space.

200 implant.
Results
Fig. 14 X-ray
after 8 months: the bone is forming and the periodontal space is maturing.
Fig. 12 X-ray
of the bone defect before the operation.
Fig. 13 X-ray of the bone
implant clearly not in contact with the distal root surface.
Experimentation
on the dog
Fig. 16
The bone defect is shown following artificial preparation and stabilization.
The defect is 10 mm deep.
Fig. 15 At the beginning
of experimentation on the dog, a flap having mucoperiosteal thickness at
the level of the second upper right premolar is sculpted.
Fig. 18 The fibrin glue,
prepared at a concentration of 500 I.U./1 ml with a Duplojet two-way syringe
and a celluloid mould placed in the defect to facilitate adaptation of the
glue to the root surface.
Fig. 19 The amniotic membrane
has been placed on the fibrin glue over the entire apico-coronal surface
of the root.
