Case Study Lower immediate rehabilitation with Computer-Guided Keyhole Surgery and an All-on-4 Fixed Implant Bridge and upper staged rehabilitation with Bone Grafting and Fixed Implant Bridge on 6 implants | Case Study2 Upper rehabilitation with an immediate All-on-4 Fixed Implant Bridge  |  | | before | after |  | 1. The patient presented with gum disease and failing bridges with recurrent tooth decay. Whilst 3 teeth were sound (left), they were sacrificed in order to avoid bone grafting and achieve and optimal result with alveolectomy aesthetic gum replacement. The lower bridge (right) was caved down destabilizing the bite. |  | 2. Treatment involved removal of all upper teeth (except one back tooth), alveolectomy and an immediate all-on-4 restoration incorporating aesthetic gum replacement. The lower bridge (right) was replaced to the correct height for an optimal occlusion (bite). |  | 3. The upper replacement teeth were removed 15 months after implant surgery to reveal complete healing and healthy gums. |  | 4. The upper fixed replacement teeth were re-fitted over the implants for another 15-24 months before next review. |  | 5. An x-ray was taken at 15 months showing angulated implants in the back, and straight implants in the front, placed using a conventional all-on-4 protocol. |  |  | | Before | After | | Case Study3 Simultaneous upper & lower rehabilitation with an immediate All-on-4 Fixed Implant Bridges  |  | | before | after |  | 1. The patient presented with numerous missing teeth and dysfunction. He could not tolerate partial dentures. The remaining teeth were decayed and had gum disease. |  | 2. All teeth were removed and immediate implant bridges were placed in the upper and lower jaws using conventional all-on-4 technique. The gums were closed with dissolvable stitches visible here above the top teeth. |  | 3. A baseline x-ray was taken after surgery showing angulated implants in the back, and straight implants in the front, placed using a conventional all-on-4 technique. Note that this technique allows bypassing of nerve bundle in the lower jaw, and bypassing of deficient bone and sinuses in the upper jaw. |  |  | | Before | After | |
