Specially designed and CAD/CAM manufactured allogeneic bone blocks using for augmentation of a highly atrophic maxilla show a stable base for an all-on-six treatment concept: a case report [PDF]
Maxillofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2022 Background In terms of a highly atrophic maxilla, bone augmentation still remains very challenging. With the introduction of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) for allogeneic bone blocks, a new method for the treatment of bone ...

Comparison of posterior support strategies with pterygoid implants for full-arch implant rehabilitation in the atrophic maxilla: a finite element study [PDF]
BMC Oral HealthBackground Rehabilitation of the atrophic maxilla is challenging due to bone resorption and anatomical limitations. Although the All-on-Four concept offers a predictable treatment strategy, posterior cantilevers may increase biomechanical risk. Pterygoid
