Abstract

Dental implants are widely used for the rehabilitation of edentulous edges and have shown a good success rate. However, the treatment becomes challenging when it comes to atrophic ridges. The rehabilitation of atrophic ridges with endosseous implants may pose a challenge in implant dentistry. Custom-made implants with immediate loading over-dentures are emerging as a solution for atrophic jaw rehabilitation. In this case report, a 67-year-old male patient with a partially edentulous maxilla and mandible reported to Edens Dental And Maxillofacial Hospital. The patient was treated using custom-made 3D printed subperiosteal titanium implants using a 2-stage approach. The results were good, but long-term studies using larger patient samples would be necessary to confirm the outcome.
