Basal Osseointegrated Implants: Classification and Review
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 11
Abstract
Restoration of moderate to severely atrophic jaws with conventional implants requires extensive surgical procedures that is expensive, involves a great deal of post-operative discomfort, and does not assure success of the procedure done and the rehabilitation intended. In such scenarios that require such procedures, basal implants come to the rescue. Basal implants are specifically designed to allow fixed rehabilitation in severely atrophic jaws and several designs of these implants exist today that have made basal implantology flexible enough to accommodate any situation. Through this article we propose a classification for basal implants based on their morphology and also explain in detail about the various aspects of these implants.
