Coating Tetracycline on Implants?
Dr. S. asks:
Has anyone had experience or read anything about coating tetracycline on dental implants at the time of placement? I have tried this and feel integration is quicker and superior.
I have been using tetracycline in my composite bone grafts with great success over the last few years. I
now understand that in Europe they are coating gortex membranes with success
and at the last AO conference it was stated that sinus grafts have less
infection with tetracycline added to the graft. Any thoughts?
