All on 4 technique assisted with computer guided surgery – A case report with 18 months follow up
Journal Title: IP International Journal of Periodontology and Implantology - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The Allon4 technique for dental implant placement has recently generated increased interest among many patients as a highly functional aesthetic costeffective treatment alternative The technique is a good option for patients who desire fixed naturallooking dentition yet are not willing to undergo sinus grafting or extensive bone augmentation Computerguided dental implantation is a revolutionary system in dentistry The technology offers greater accuracy and precision than do freehand techniques and is therefore safer The Allon4 method combined with guided surgery does not demand high levels of surgical expertise Furthermore the procedure is less traumatic for the patientthe implant is placed on the best available boneand the technique is associated with fewer postoperative complications We present the case of a fully edentulous patient whose maxillary and mandibular dentition was restored using a fixed prosthesis and a guided Allon4 technique the patient was followed up for 18 months after surgery Keywords Allon4 Computer guided surgery Dental implants
