Additively manufactured custom-made subperiosteal implant rehabilitation for severely atrophic maxillary molar area: A technical note

Implant-prosthetic rehabilitations of severely atrophic posterior maxillary sectors currently is challenging, often requiring multiple surgeries and long rehabilitation times. Recently, graftless techniques (e.g. zygomatic, pterygoid and nasal implants) have gained popularity as they offer a reduction in rehabilitation time, aligning more closely with patient preferences but may not be feasible for sectorial rehabilitations. Subperiosteal implants, suggested for full-arch rehabilitations of atrophic maxilla, haven't been explored for sectorial rehabilitations. In this report we present the case of a patient with maxillary molar edentulism, rehabilitated with a subperiosteal implant.
