Abstract

A 58-year old woman with no molar teeth on her upper left side wanted these missing teeth to be replaced with a fixed implant prosthesis. Incision, from distal to 2nd premolar to hamulus, was performed and impression of canine fossa anteriorly, zygoma buccally, pterygoid hamulus posteriorly and palatal groove lingually was taken by Optosil (Bayer Dent.). The implant frame was made of Vitallium, and was inserted the next day after the impression had been taken. 12-days later, the 4-units fixed prosthesis was constructed. The patient was extremely comfortable, had no pain, and was able to chew food more efficiently.
