Dr. Paulo Maló, Portugal – All-on-4® treatment concept
Situation: Totally edentulous female patient in her early 50s, rehabilitated with upper and lower removable dentures over 15 years prior.
Solution: Fixed implant-supported bimaxillary rehabilitation using the All-on-4® treatment concept. The NobelGuide protocol (flapless) is followed in the maxilla and the conventional flap technique with the All-on-4® Guide is followed in the mandible. As a final prosthesis, fixed precision-milled NobelProcera Implant Bridges were chosen for both the maxilla and the mandible.
