Implant Case #7

After a complete clinical and radiographic review, a treatment plan was developed. Upon the patient's acceptance and consent the case was begun. Preliminary impressions were taken and the state of the dentition was documented with intraoral photography.

The upper anterior teeth were extracted and a laboratory pre-prepared Provisional Partial Upper Denture was placed to restore the dentition to form and function until the planned care was completed. Images of the Provisional Partial Upper Denture found below was worn intraorally until the completion of care.

Following 5 months of healing the patient underwent a Cat Scan to evaluate the bone and provided a means of measuring the bone in three dimensions. It also digitally provided a means of fabricating a template to place the planned implants at specific locations at measured distances and angulations so that the planned bridge that would be supported by the implants would restore form and function to the dentition. An image of the template in place intraorally is found below.

The images below are that of the completed case.
