Popis: | The placement of grafting material in extraction sites for ridge preservation is an increasingly common practice among clinicians. This is a case report of a patient presenting with a symptomatic, foreign body granuloma following the placement of hard tissue replacement (HTR) in extraction sockets. The surgical specimen revealed numerous histiocytes and foreign body type giant cells. The grafting material was surgically removed and the patient's symptoms were alleviated. Although biocompatibility of HTR has previously been shown, specific applications may be contraindicated or some patients may exhibit sensitivity to this material. |
