This lecture will explore the diverse treatment options for the rehabilitation of the atrophic edentulous maxilla.
This condition presents numerous considerations, making it one of the most intricate challenges in implant dentistry. Extensive bone loss leads to significant loss of facial support and general structural collapse.
Implant rehabilitation encompasses more than merely locating suitable bone for implant placement and subsequently securing a prosthesis. An integrated surgical and prosthetic approach is essential to determine how the planned prosthesis can restore facial contours, restore the dentition to an aesthetically pleasing outcome, facilitate speech, and enhance proprioception, which may have deteriorated over time.
Treatment planning should account for all these factors, complemented by the utilisation of contemporary digital diagnostic technologies, implant placement techniques, and material selection.
