Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this case study series was to introduce successful implant cases that used the palatal bone in patients with severe maxillary alveolar bone atrophy or defects. Case Presentation: In this case series study, a total of four patients underwent implant placement in the palatal bone of the maxilla. A total of 6 implants were installed using the palatine bone. The patients' ages ranged from 40 to 73 years with an average age of 63.5 years. The patients had maxillary sinus-related diseases, such as maxillary sinusitis, oroantral fistula, and dentigerous cysts, prior to implantation. To achieve initial stability, the implants were placed on the palatal side, and buccally tilted. The average postoperative recovery period was 8 months. No postoperative complications occurred in any of the cases, and the approach was used without reported issues. Conclusion: Implant treatment by securing the initial fixation in the palatal bone is a good alternative when an implant must be installed in a patient who requires extensive and invasive bone graft.
