Introduction: Most of the approaches to the restoration of edentulous maxillae have been developed and these treatments can be costly and time-consuming, and involve extensive grafting of the edentulous ridges and sinus compartments. The “All-on-Four” treatment concept is a simpler and less time consuming procedure, based on combining tilted and straight implants for supporting fixed prostheses.
Case Presentation This case presentation will present the use of regular platform implants with all on four treatment concept to provide a patient with a screw-retained definitive prosthesis.
Discussion: Esthetics and function remained stable over a follow-up period of 1 year. No biomechanical or biologic complications were observed.
Conclusion: The All-on-4 treatment concept has been shown to be a viable alternative, with limited grafting required, using at least four regular-platform implants to support screw-retained definitive prosthesis.
