LORRIO CASTRO, J.M. et al. Implant rehabilitation of maxillary edentulous patient by guided surgery and immediate loading. Avances en Periodoncia [online]. 2015, vol.27, n.3, pp.117-124. ISSN 2340-3209.

Introduction: Guided surgery and immediate functional loading of dental implants constitute a new comprehensive approach for rehabilitation of edentulous patients. The aim of this paper was to present the diagnosis, surgical and prosthetic protocol of implants by guided technique and immediate loading in the treatment of edentulous maxilla. Case report: A 70-year-old-man, requested an evaluation regarding implant treatment for the edentulous maxilla. The cone beam computarized tomography (CBCT) showed that the patient have an adequate bone volume for maxillary implant placement. The data from CBCT were used for evaluation and treatment planning. Ten implants were treatment planned. Digital data were sent to a software manufacturer (Galimplant.3D^®) and surgical template and fixed provisional prosthesis according clinical examination were received. According surgical template implants were inserted for a flapless surgical technique with an accuraced drilling. Immediate transitional fixed prosthesis were realized and adjusted with the abutment and finally, occlusion is evaluated. Definitive fixed prosthesis was realized after a 6 month-period of time. Conclusions: This paper indicated that guided implant dentistry may constitute a successful treatment of edentulous maxillary patients.
