Zygomatic implants to address prior maxillary implant failure

A 52-year-old female patient presented a failure of 6 implants supporting a fixed bridge, after 6 years after their placement. The failing implants were removed and all the zygomatic implants were inserted at the level of the zygomatic bone and allocated in the maxillary bone.

Fixed rehabilitation of an edentulous maxilla

A 62-year-old male presented with tooth #16 FDI (#3 US). Despite the lack of bone volume posteriorly, he had sufficient volume anteriorly and an abundant amount of keratinized tissue making him a good candidate for an All-on-4® treatment concept with a hybrid restoration.
