Dental Rehabilitation of the Atrophic Maxilla
Ankur Johri, DDS, MD, FACS
Rehabilitation of the atrophic maxillary arch can present a number of challenges in clinical practice. Adequate implant insertional torque may be problematic to achieve, and pneumatization of the sinuses may impede implant placement, among other clinical difficulties. All-on-X treatment concept has been found to be a predictable approach with safe long-term outcomes in patients with edentulous maxilla. Treatment planning for the All-on-X treatment approach in these patients involves special considerations—ie, bone quality, ensuring adequate bone reduction, the length of the implants, presence of bone in the maxillary zones, and the length of the cantilever.
