TITLE OF CASE
Full arch
CLINICIAN NAME:
Lambert J Stumpel, DDS San Francisco
SUMMARY (Up to 150 words summarising the case presentation and outcome)
Maxillary full arch implant supported fixed denture replacing an existing over-denture. The existing over-denture was ethically and functionally not satisfactory to this 64 year old female patient. Options discussed; new over denture, new complete denture, implant fixed reconstruction. Patient consented to the implant fixed reconstruction A stepped approach was selected with removal of visible natural gum tissue two months before implant placement. A full acrylic immediate load prosthesis was placed at time of implant placement. After 4 months of healing, the final metal resin implant supported full arch denture was fabricated.
BACKGROUND (Up to 60 words of why you think this case is important)
A fixed restoration will restore a patient in a biomimetic way. Since the reconstruction is not removable the prosthesis will feel like part of the patient. This will not only restore the ability to eat and speak, but importantly for the patient to feel whole. Patient reports having gradually lost most maxillary teeth, which were replaced with removable dentures.
CASE PRESENTATION (Presenting features, dental/social/family history etc.)
Subjective ; Patient states that she is unhappy with the look and feel of her over-denture
Objective; 64 year old female with an existing maxillary over-denture showing signs of wear. Two remaining teeth # 8 and 9 with over-denture attachment. Mandibular arch is fully restored and healthy. Medical history ; Within normal limits. Patient does not take any medication and is in good health

Dental history ; Lost maxillary teeth at younger age, with natural teeth retained over denture. Mandibular arch has been recently reconstructed.
Assessment ; Partially edentulous maxilla, with remaining compromised teeth
Plan;
Discussion about alternatives (Full denture) , risk factors ( non integration of implants) and prognosis ( good)
Remove existing teeth 8 & 9
Alveolectomy to bring smile line under the prosthetic junction line
Place 4 implants to create adequate AP spread
Deliver Immediate load prosthesis
Upon verified osseo-integration of implants replace provisional with metal resin implants fixed full denture

OUTCOME AND FOLLOW-UP
The treatment has progressed according to plan. The patient is currently 3 years post-delivery of the final prosthesis and is very pleased with the outcome. The reconstruction appears stable at this time

Statement of Truth
I, ___________________________, attest to being the providing clinician for all of the treatment indicated in the
above case presentation. I further confirm that all clinical photographs and radiographs are original and have not been
tampered with or materially altered in any way to enhance the appearance or outcome of the case presented.

DISCUSSION (include very brief review of any complications or problems and how they were handled)
When reconstructing a composite defect, both teeth (white) and gum tissue (pink) has to be recreated. If prosthetic pink shows during smiling next to natural pink the aesthetic result will always be unsatisfactory. Often there is the need to reduce the existing ridge to bring the prosthetic junction with the natural pink and the artificial pink below the smile line. Not recognizing this before implant placement can create unsurmountable problems if a fixed reconstruction is the desired outcome. In this case pre-prosthetic surgical intervention created the correct relationship of the ridge in relation to the smile line. Alternatively this might have been performed at time of implant placement. Although such an approach saves treatment time, it complicates planning for the ideal tooth position. The patient is very happy with the achieved outcome.
LEARNING POINTS/TAKE HOME MESSAGES (3 to 5 bullet points)
Fixed reconstructions are biomimetic reconstruction
Bone removal is often indicated for acceptable aesthetic results
Bone removal can be accomplished before or during implant placement
The provisional restoration functions as the blueprint for the final reconstruction
4 implants can create an adequate AP spread and support a fixed reconstruction in the maxilla
