Four-year outcomes of full-arch fixed dental prostheses using CAD/CAM frameworks : a retrospective review of 15 cases

2018

The aim of this report is to analyze the clinical performance of 20 full-arch implant-supported titanium frameworks using CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology. One hundred and four implants were placed in 15 patients using a one-stage protocol. After planning the location of all implants via 3-dimensional software (NobleClinician), 4-8 implants were placed in each edentulous arch based on anatomical measurements. Twenty edentulous arches were treated with full arch implant-supported fixed dental prostheses utilizing CAD/CAM milled titanium frameworks . All patients were followed up for 48±4 months. Clinical performance of the implants and restorations …
