IMPLANTO-PROSTHETIC REHABILITATION IN THE POSTERIOR MANDUBULAR REGION. CASE STUDY

Abstract

Posterior mandibular edentations with a reduced alveolar ridge require a complex treatment plan. Treatment concepts involving two to four implants supporting an overdenture have been proposed. In this article, we present a clinical case of implanto-prosthetic rehabilitation of the posterior mandibular area with bone addition using the synthetic biomaterial “Kolapol KP – 3LM”.
