Considerations Regarding Treatment Options and Technique For Cortically Anchored Implants in the Distal Maxilla
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
Dental implantology has made possible the replacement and restoration of function, aesthetics and phonetics in the lost dentition. And although, new research in the field of dental implantology and osseointegration has surpassed various expectations, restoration of the resorbing maxilla has always posed a problem to the practicing dentist. The distal segment of the upper jaw appears especially prone to the effects of aging and it suffers early from deterioration due to various reasons. Implant rehabilitation has demonstrated high success rates of 84–92 %, when sufficient bone is available in maxilla. However, atrophy in maxilla is not an uncommon finding and conventional implant placement in this region can often be challenging. In this review, we discuss the various obstacles in the path towards restoring the atrophic maxilla as well as surgical, prosthetic and other implant techniques imperative towards a successful outcome.
