#23 - Dr. Martina Stefanini – Why Soft Tissue Decides Implant Success

49m 58s

On this episode of botiss talks, Arturo Robertazzi sits down with Prof. Martina Stefanini — periodontist, university professor, and one of the most cited voices in periodontology today — for a conversation that moves from the pressure of live surgery in front of 5,000 people to the real clinical debate around soft tissue management.

Martina breaks down why soft tissue and bone can no longer be treated as separate problems, how connective tissue graft thickness affects long-term overgrowth risk, and what her preliminary data on cerabone® Plus, Shield, and mucoderm® in socket preservation is showing so far — including surprisingly...

#22 - Dr. Željka Perić Kačarević - Socket Management and NovaMag® Shield Explained

#22 - Dr. Željka Perić Kačarević - Socket Management and NovaMag® Shield Explained

67m 31s

In this episode of botiss talks, host Arturo Robertazzi sits down with Dr. Željka Perić Kačarević from botiss biomaterials to unpack socket management after tooth extraction. They cover the three socket types clinicians deal with daily, why buccal plate volume is critical for long term implant and bridge success, and how bone resorption progresses if a socket is left untreated.

Željka walks through classic socket preservation using cerabone® plus and maxgraft®, membrane options including Jason® membrane, collprotect® membrane, mucoderm®, and Perlamin®, and then introduces NovaMag® Shield, botiss's resorbable magnesium based innovation. They get into how the shield technique works, the...

#19 – Dr. Larissa Steigmann – Socket Management for Predictable Implant Outcomes

#19 – Dr. Larissa Steigmann – Socket Management for Predictable Implant Outcomes

37m 9s

Successful implant outcomes begins at the moment of tooth extraction. In this expert conversation, implant surgeon and researcher Larissa Steigmann explains why socket management and alveolar ridge preservation are essential for long term implant stability and predictable aesthetic outcomes.

The discussion explores a practical structured socket classification and decision-making approach, that helps clinicians diagnose extraction sockets and choose the appropriate treatment strategy. From intact sockets to severely compromised sites, the session covers how clinicians can combine biomaterials to preserve bone volume and support future implant placement.

Key clinical topics include ridge preservation protocols, the role of volume stable bone grafts...

#18 – Prof. Giovanni Zucchelli – Soft Tissue Management in Modern Implantology

#18 – Prof. Giovanni Zucchelli – Soft Tissue Management in Modern Implantology

36m 18s

In this episode of the botiss podcast Arturo Robertazzi sits down with Giovanni Zucchelli for a deep and personal conversation on soft tissue management clinical decision making and the evolution of implant dentistry.
From their first meeting in Bologna to global lectures and long term clinical cases Zucchelli shares insights on why soft tissue is critical for both aesthetics and biology and how clinicians can improve outcomes in everyday practice.

#17 – Hassan Maghaireh – Excellence in grafting: Block grafting, soft tissue and barrier membranes

#17 – Hassan Maghaireh – Excellence in grafting: Block grafting, soft tissue and barrier membranes

24m 14s

In this second episode of the podcast on “Excellence in Grafting”, Dr. Hassan Maghaireh will address the technique of block augmentation for the treatment of complex bone defects, while placing particular emphasis on the question of soft tissue management and the use of soft tissue grafts.
He will furthermore discuss the choice of the right barrier membrane based on the clinical situation and the objective of the treatment.

#16 – Hassan Maghaireh – Excellence in grafting: One size does not fit all

#16 – Hassan Maghaireh – Excellence in grafting: One size does not fit all

20m 49s

Nowadays, clinicians have access to a wide spectrum of different bone grafting materials. Making the right choice among synthetic, bovine or allogenic bone has a significant impact on the result and success of each individual clinical case.
Dr. Hassan Maghaireh from the UK is a leading expert in the field of hard and soft tissue regeneration and head of the scientific committee at the British Academy of Implant and Restorative Dentistry.
In this podcast, he will share his broad experience in bone augmentation with particular attention to the biological behavior of each different category of grafting material.

#15 – Frank Kloss – Block Grafting with maxgraft® – Advanced Bone Augmentation Techniques with Allografts

#15 – Frank Kloss – Block Grafting with maxgraft® – Advanced Bone Augmentation Techniques with Allografts

29m 52s

Dr. Frank Kloss from Austria is a an expert on the topic of block augmentation. In his many years of work as a maxillofacial surgeon he has not only gathered extensive clinical experience on this topic, but has also published various scientific papers and lectured at international events. In this episode of the botiss podcast he will share his experience on maxgraft® blocks and the maxgraft® bonebuilder, a customized allogenic bone block.

 #14 – Sascha Böhm – The blue membrane – behind the scenes of permamem®

#14 – Sascha Böhm – The blue membrane – behind the scenes of permamem®

20m 12s

When it comes to bone augmentation, collagen membranes have traditionally been dominating the scene. Nevertheless, certain clinical situations require an alternative to this well-established standard. Additionally, social trends such as vegetarianism and veganism have strengthened the tendency to use materials that are not of animal origin. botiss has therefore developed a synthetic alternative. In this podcast, Dr. Sascha Böhm, who was involved in the development of permamem®, will give some valuable insights into this unique product and its clinical applications.
