Abstract
Patient: A 48-year-old female complained of masticatory disturbance caused by maxillary and mandibular distal extension missing. The patient complained of discomfort of maxillary removable denture. After maxillary sinus floor elevation, the treatment provided occlusal reconstruction with implant-supported fixed prostheses for maxilla and mandible.
Discussion: The implant prosthesis resulted in a good outcome with no mobility and no morbid bone resorption around implants during periodical recall. The patient was very satisfied with function and esthetics by the implant treatment. Establishment of occlusal support by implants also presented stabilizing of existing teeth.
Conclusion: The implant treatment effectively improved the patient's requirements for comfort in maxillar bilateral free-end missing.
