Title: Immediate loading of implants and fixed complete dentures: a simplified prosthetic procedure. Author: Boulos PJ. Journal: Gen Dent; 2010; 58(5):406-9. PubMed ID: 20829165. Abstract: The immediate placement of fixed prostheses after the surgical phase is a challenge for prosthodontists using the All-on-four method. This article describes a simplified technique for constructing a conventional complete denture ahead of the surgery date and adapting it to the implants by using a laboratory reline procedure. This technique accommodates the immediate placement of the fixed prosthesis after surgery without compromising the quality of the prosthesis, requiring only a simple dental laboratory procedure.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
