Abstract

PENARROCHA DIAGO, M et al. Guided bone regeneration and zygomatic implants: a case report. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.2, pp.63-70.  Epub Dec 05, 2022. ISSN 2340-3152.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0213-12852020000200002.

A clinical case is presented in which a patient with atrophic upper jaw is rehabilitated by a combination of zygomatic implants, placed using an exteriorized approach, and conventional palatalized anterior implants. A guided bone regeneration procedure is performed around the zygomatic implants to obtain a greater thickness of the facial bone and improve the prognosis. One year after loading, the peri-implant bone remains stable.
