Rehabilitation of partially and completely edentulous patients with implant supported prosthesis has become a widely accepted treatment option. The conventional Branemark system involves loading of the implants after 4 to 6 months of placement. It has many disadvantages as patient has no teeth or opt for removable temporary prosthesis and hence, many patients, at times, do not choose this option at all. Dental implants, when placed in the basal bone, can be immediately loaded with teeth; as this bone is very strong, never gets resorbed throughout life and forms the stress bearing part of our skeleton. Here, we present a case report of full mouth rehabilitation in which 19 single piece basal implants were inserted and functionally loaded with both maxillary and mandibular cement retained hybrid dentures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
