Implant rehabilitation with Strategic Implant® technology in two stage implants – bone addition, sinus-lift failure (cases presentation)

Abstract

In this article, the authors want to present the possibilities of solving some difficult cases, treated in a conventional surgical and implant manner and which were a failure, as well as the possibilities of avoiding these failures using Strategic Implant® technology. In the first case presented, the patient goes through bone augmentation procedures, without reaching the time of implant insertion and prosthesis, with the loss of bone addition on one side of the mandible, the case being later completed with corticobasal implants in immediate prosthetic loading. The second case in which the patient successively loses the inserted two stage implants, without reaching their functional load, resorts to the treatment with corticobasal implants in immediate loading and the fixed prosthetic restoration of the mandible in 3 days postimplantation. The last case in which the patient comes for the removal of a maxillary prosthetic work fixed on 4 two stage implants with bone addition and unilateral sinuslift, with mobility, and in which the treatment with corticobasal implants and fixed prosthetic work in 3 days was the optimal way of treatment. These cases as well as the feedback of the treatment after a number of years show us that the treatment with corticobasal implants can be made much easier using only the native bone of the patient using implants that adapt to the morphology of the existing bone and a immediate loading protocol to allow the optimal functioning of prosthetic works; knowledge of surgical and prosthetic protocols of Strategic Implant® technology lead to predictable prosthetic results with minimally invasive surgery, without sinus lift and bone addition, in a short time of 3 days from the surgical step until the final oral rehabilitation.
