Abstract:

The conventional complete removable prosthesis is unfortunately no longer sufficient to address a problem that many patients still experience as a severe disability. At the same time, technological advancements in implant treatments are increasingly highlighted in the media, leading to a growing demand from patients seeking a solution to improve their quality of life and benefit from what Brånemark referred to as the "third dentition." Guided surgery is one of these technological advances, offering precision, safety, speed, and easier access to the procedure. This innovative surgical approach, which is becoming increasingly popular, has been scientifically and clinically validated and represents a true revolution in treatment planning. In this context, we will present clinical cases illustrating the various guided digital implant surgery procedures used to treat maxillary edenttulous patients.
