Ultradent is proud to announce the international release of RootReplica, the newest and safest way to preserve the alveolar (jaw) bone after a tooth extraction.
RootReplica is a patented system designed to prevent atrophy of the alveolar crest. After a tooth is extracted, the alveolus is immediately closed with a custom made replica of the extracted tooth root. After insertion, the stable form of RootReplica supports the surrounding tissue and alveolar bone. RootReplica provides immediate wound closure, stops bleeding and prevents bacterial colonization using an integrated membrane.
RootReplica is a unique prevention therapy that immediately treats the extraction wound site, builds the bony structure during the following months, and preserves the natural bone structure—making future restorations possible.
RootReplica is made from Pure Phase Beta-Tri-calcium Phosphate. The material is biocompatible and completely resorbed after implantation. The manufacturing of RootReplica is done chairside in less than 10 minutes.
RootReplica is CE approved and pending FDA approval.
