All-on-4 upper jaw rehabilitation with Straumann implants and bone grafting

All-on-4 upper jaw rehabilitation with Straumann implants and bone grafting
Complaints:
Tooth loss in the upper jaw, aesthetic and chewing function issues.
Diagnosis:
Missing teeth in the upper jaw, atrophy of the alveolar ridge in the upper jaw. Secondary edentulism of the upper jaw.
Treatment:
Intraoral scanning with 3Shape was performed, and a surgical navigation template for implantation was created. Straumann implants were placed in the upper jaw following the All-on-4 protocol. A temporary plastic prosthesis reinforced with a titanium bar was made. After 4 months, permanent prosthetics were done on the implants, with non-removable zirconia crowns reinforced with titanium bars. Due to the bone atrophy in the upper jaw, bone grafting was performed around each implant during the implant placement, using a Mem-Lock collagen membrane and artificial bone substitute material.

In this case, tooth restoration on the upper jaw was complicated by the atrophy of the alveolar ridge.

Due to the loss of bone tissue, it was important not only to place the implants, but also to create stable conditions around them for successful integration.

Therefore, Straumann implantation was performed using the All-on-4 concept with the use of a surgical navigation template.

Additionally, bone grafting was carried out around each implant using a Mem-Lock collagen membrane and bone substitute material.

A temporary plastic prosthesis reinforced with a titanium bar was made during the healing period.

After 4 months, permanent non-removable zirconia crowns with titanium bars were placed on the implants.

Result:

The patient received restored teeth on the upper jaw, improved smile aesthetics, and full chewing function.

Despite bone atrophy, it was possible to carry out All-on-4 implantation and fix a stable non-removable structure.

 

If the upper jaw teeth are missing and there is insufficient bone, a tailored solution will be selected.
