In this post, we are pleased to present an interview with Orthogen Corporation about their new product, DentoGen, an FDA approved medical grade calcium sulfate hemihydrate for bone regeneration in dentistry.

It is simply not enough to be able to place implants well or restore them. The dentist, and ideally the entire dental team, must be trained in case presentation, the reasons “why” patients do what they do…

By using small diameter implants, we eliminate the need in many cases for bone augmentation and sinus lift procedures…a simple system for SDI placement eliminates many potential complications…
