Treatment of a severely atrophic maxilla using an immediately loaded, implant-supported fixed prosthesis without the use of bone grafts: a clinical report
J Prosthet Dent.
2010 Mar.
Abstract
This report describes a clinical approach to using the zygomatic and pterygomaxillary bones to provide additional anchorage for longer implants to support an immediately functional maxillary screw-retained provisional fixed prosthesis. The purpose is to report the problems of patients who have experienced the most severe form of maxillary alveolar resorption and to demonstrate a specific protocol which provides immediately loaded implants without bone grafting.
