Several surgical techniques have been developed for the restoration of bone volume needed for placing dental implants; guided bone regeneration or three-dimensional reconstructions with autologous bone, inter alia, are techniques described in the literature which demonstrate this, all of which preceded by a proper prosthetic surgical assessment. Even when the majority of authors recommend the use of these techniques prior to placing implants, it has been shown that implants with a smaller diameter and length may be placed in severely atrophied jaws without the need for performing any surgery, offering excellent results. Material and Methods: Twenty-four (24) implants were placed in six patients with severe mandibular atrophy. The implants were placed in the anterior sector and on an internal oblique line. Patients were rehabilitated with a total implant-supported prosthesis, with monitoring over a 10-year period. Results: After a 12-month monitoring period, all the patients presented successful rehabilitation. Marginal bone loss in general (n=24 implants) was +0.11 mm ± 0.53. In the implants in zones 1 and 4 (posterior) it was +0.06 mm ± 0.48 and in implants in zones 2 and 3 (anterior), +0.14 mm ± 0.57. Conclusions: Implants can be placed in the anterior zone and on an internal oblique line in patients with severe mandibular atrophy, using a diameter and length adapted to bone availability, for later prosthetic rehabilitation, offering satisfactory results since phonetic and masticatory function can be restored, as well as facial and buccal aesthetics, in a single surgical operation, with minimum morbidity. |
