A Novel Technique for the Management of a Maxillary Anterior Alveolar Defect with an Implant-retained Fixed Prosthesis: A Clinical Report
نویسنده
چکیده
Successful replacement of the lost teeth by means of tissueintegrated implants represents a major advance in dentistry. The bone quality and quantity available in the anterior maxilla is often variable, and commonly, there is a deficiency of bone volume. Dentoalveolar defects resulting in the loss of the maxillary anterior alveolar ridge is generally a challenge for clinicians. The aim of this clinical report is to describe the prosthetic management of a maxillary anterior alveolar defect with an implant-retained fixed prosthesis. The esthetic and functional requirements of the patient were fulfilled.

This article describes the dental implant-based rehabilitation of a partially edentulous patient with a unilateral maxillary dento-alveolar defect. A screw-retained prosthesis with a modified design was fabricated on zygomatic and regular dental implants. One section of the implant prosthesis has cemented crowns and the other section is conventional screw-retained. The design of the prosthesis ...

Augmentation of deficient and atrophic alveolar ridges is an important aspect of dental implant therapy with the goal of providing a functional restoration in harmony with adjacent natural dentition. Bone splitting technique is considered a distinguished augmentation method for treatment of deficient alveolar ridges. According to this procedure, the compromised alveolar ridge is opened from the...

Abstract Facial defects not only impact on the function and quality of life but also affect the psychological well-being and social behavior of patients. A nasal prosthesis can re-establish the esthetics and anatomical contour in patients with mid-facial defects, often more effectively than surgical reconstruction. For successful results, many factors such as retention, texture, color match ...

This report details the use of zygomatic oncology osseointegrated implants to support and retain a maxillary obturator in a 13-year-old male patient who underwent a right-sided hemi-maxillectomy (Brown Class 2b) (Brown and Shaw, Lancet Oncol 11:1001-8, 2010) for a myxoid spindle cell carcinoma. At the time of maxillary resection, two zygomatic oncology implants were inserted into the right zygo...
