Complete mouth rehabilitation of patient with terminal dentition

This patient presented with multiple decayed teeth and both periodontal and occlusal breakdown. She had a past history of drug abuse. Since the existing teeth could not be restored because of the extensive damage, the All-on-4® treatment concept was used in both arches.

Rehabilitation of edentulous maxilla and partially edentulous mandible

A 50-year-old female patient had 5 remaining maxillary anterior but no posterior teeth. The sinuses were pneumatized and sinus grafting was required bilaterally followed by a 6-month healing period prior to placement of 6 implants.

Treatment of an edentulous patient with tardive dyskinesia

A female patient lacks the maxillary posterior support and has tardive dyskinesia. The treatment illustrates virtual planning for the use of zygomatic implants coupled with posterior retraction of the anterior replacement teeth for a more aesthetic result.

Immediate placement/loading to treat a terminal dentition

A 43-year-old male patient was not comfortable with the idea of a denture. The loss of anterior teeth finally stimulated the urgency to move forward with a solid reconstructive plan.  A restoration provided at day of surgery proved to be the optimal solution for this patient.

Edentulous patient rehabilitated with implant retained restorations

A 63-year-old female patient's chief complaint was the severe impact on function and chewing following extensive periodontal breakdown associated with significant mobility of numerous teeth. A full mouth rehabilitation over implants was the option selected.

Zygomatic implants to address prior maxillary implant failure

A 52-year-old female patient presented a failure of 6 implants supporting a fixed bridge, after 6 years after their placement. The failing implants were removed and all the zygomatic implants were inserted at the level of the zygomatic bone and allocated in the maxillary bone.

Immediate placement and loading in the anterior maxilla

A 54-year-old male patient presented for rehabilitation of an extended maxillary edentulous space. The patient was rehabilitated without any grafting by using artificial pink gingiva and implants with bone expansion properties.

Successful esthetic implant therapy in site of past failure

A 54-year-old female patient presented with 2 implant failures as well as a bone graft failure. As a result of an apical surgery, an amalgam tattoo was evident on the buccal aspect. The compromised pink aesthetics, as well as prosthodontic discrepancies, were evident.

Multi-disciplinary treatment of absent central incisors

A 28-year-old male patient presented after a bilateral sagittal split osteotomy performed to correct a Class II deep bite. During the same surgery, an autogenous chin graft was placed in order to augment the anterior maxilla.

Facial reconstruction following radical surgery

A male patient had advanced cancer of the face/sinus, for which he received life-saving surgery with loss of his left eye, cheek, and jawbone and much of his skull. He could not have a surgical reconstruction due to his medical history.
