Due to unfortunate professional and private circumstances, this patient had lost many teeth to decay and periodontal disease. Additionally, he was very scared of the dentist.
After assessing our options, we decided together with the patient to extract all remaining teeth and create a permanent restoration carried by implants. In a six-hour operation in sedation we extracted all teeth, cleaned the bone from any inflammation, placed overall eight implants and re-augmented new bone. Three hours later we placed new temporary teeth on the implants in upper and lower jaw.
After an initial healing phase of four weeks the temporary teeth were changed to a permanent restoration (CoCrMoW framework, PMMA teeth and Bis-GMA gum imitation).
