Treatment Options Before and After Edentulism

Implant supported Fixed Restoration (ISFR) are completely implant supported with no transfer of load to denture bearing areas, thus avoiding the possibility of further resorption associated with implant overdenture. This book provides complete solutions for edentulous patients using different types of fixed prostheses. Implant supported Fixed Restoration (ISFR) are completely implant supported with no transfer of load to denture bearing areas, thus avoiding the possibility of further resorption associated with implant overdenture. This book describes specific parameters that should be evaluated when selecting an ISFR or IOD, including the available bone quantity and quality, the number, location, and implant distribution, the available inter-arch distance and maxilla-mandibular relationship, the nature of the opposing occlusion, the cost as and maintain the prosthesis. Digital treatment planning and advanced implant surgery as well as traditional and novel hybrid type prosthesis are explained. The book discusses implant therapy success considering both the clinicians and the patients’ opinions. It is a must have for all clinicians who treat edentulous patients. Two companion volumes coveringtreatment options before and after edentulism, including tooth supported overdentures and implant overdenture, are available separately.
