Complications of Sinus Grafting and the Atrophic Maxilla

2020
Occlusal rehabilitation of the atrophic maxilla with dental implants poses a great challenge to both the surgeon and the prosthodontist. Disuse atrophy of the alveolar ridge might impede straight forward implantation, specifically in posterior maxilla where the quality of bone is of concern as well.

Surgical reconstruction of the atrophic maxilla.

Compendium (Newtown, Pa.), 1994
This article illustrates a technique for the surgical treatment of the patient with an atrophic maxilla. It encompasses the diagnostic evaluation using clinical and radiographic techniques, the placement of autogenous bone grafts in the premaxilla, and subantral augmentation in the posterior maxilla.

Augmentation of the atrophic maxilla with interpositional autogenous bone grafts

Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery, 1984
Extreme ridge atrophy is a significant problem when it occurs in the maxilla, since inadequate denture function, as well as poor facial aesthetics, commonly result. Use of the Le Fort I osteotomy of the maxilla with interpositional iliac cortico-cancellous bone grafts is a predictable method of ridge augmentation in severe cases.

Rehabilitation of the Atrophic Maxilla With Tilted Implants: Review of the Literature

Journal of Oral Implantology, 2013
We review the evidence-based literature on the use of tilted implants in the rehabilitation of patients with maxillary atrophy. Studies from 1999 to 2010 on patients with atrophic maxilla rehabilitated with tilted implants were reviewed. Clinical series with at least 10 patients rehabilitated using tilted implants and a follow-up of at least 12 months ...

Simplified method for fabricating a prong denture for atrophic maxillae

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1984
A simpler technique for fabricating a prong denture has been described. The prong denture was placed in the mouth of a patient with an atrophic maxilla, who was suffering from ALS, a disabling motor disease. The patient was unable to manage a conventional denture.

Treatment Options for Severely Atrophic Maxillae

2012
In this chapter, two main treatment options for severely edentulous atrophic posterior maxillae—bone augmentation procedure and zygomatic implant application—are presented. Poor bone quality and insufficient bone volume due to critical jawbone atrophy in the posterior maxillae are addressed as the main factors contribute to the failure of dental ...

Rehabilitation of Atrophic Posterior Maxilla With Zygomatic Implants: Review

Journal of Oral Implantology, 2012
The objective of this study was to review the published literature to evaluate treatment success with zygomatic implants in patients with atrophic posterior maxilla. Studies from 1987 to 2010 were reviewed. In each study, the following were assessed: indications for treatment, number of patients, number of implants, length and diameter of the implants,

Zygomatic Implants: A Solution for the Atrophic Maxilla.

Dental clinics of North America, 2020
Even with the great strides made in the techniques for placement of traditional endosseous dental implants, restoration of the dentition in patients with a severely resorbed or resected maxilla can prove challenging. For many decades, significant bone grafting was the mainstay of treatment for these patients. However, zygomatic implants have been shown

Use of Zygomatic Implant on the Severe Atrophic Maxilla

2020
Osseointegrated implants are the most effective tool for rehabilitation of total or partial edentulous patients; however, the presence of bone atrophy is an obstacle for the use of implants. On severely resorbed maxilla the limitations for the installation of conventional implants requires alveolar reconstructive procedures with the use of autogenous ...
