Immediate Restorations with a Reduced Number of Implants

Mehr zum Buch

The use of distal angled implants with a splinted superstructure has become a key method for restoring edentulous jaws with fixed dental prostheses. This book introduces the SKY fast & fixed approach, detailing the step-by-step placement of angulated implants in the posterior region to ensure stable support for immediate restoration, even in atrophied jaws, while minimizing the number of implants required. It covers the clinical and technical foundations of this innovative method and explores various options for prosthetic restoration, supported by case presentations showcasing remarkable clinical outcomes. Key contents include initial findings on SKY fast & fixed restorations without augmentation, addressing the needs of older patients, and predictable immediate restorations. The materials and methods section discusses the BlueSKY implant, impression techniques, and both temporary and definitive restorations. Clinical procedures emphasize reliable planning through CBCT, surgical procedures, and the phases of prosthesis from temporary to definitive. The book also addresses patient satisfaction, potential postoperative and late complications, and overall results, making it an essential resource for progressive implant dentists.
