fixed prosthesis

The four implants support a fixed prosthesis with 12 to 14 teeth and it is placed immediately on the day of surgery.

Bridge (dentistry), a fixed prosthesis used to replace missing teeth.

This position is used when restoring edentulous patients with removable or either implant-supported hybrid or fixed prostheses.

After implant placement, it is necessary to wait two to three months, after which time it is possible the placement of the fixed prosthesis.

"Fast and fixed" are similar surgical concepts whereby implants are placed on the same day and a fixed prosthesis is attached to them.

To achieve long lasting restorations and retentive fixed prostheses, the following manipulative considerations for GIC must be satisfied:

Generally, functional load with a fixed prosthesis is applied later, after 3 to 4 months for the mandible, and after 5 to 6 months for the maxilla.

It consists of the rehabilitation of the edentulous maxilla and mandible with fixed prosthesis by placing four implants in the anterior maxilla, where bone density is higher, allowing the highest success rate.

Too much active substance in the bone cement would actually be detrimental, because the mechanical stability of the fixed prosthesis is weakened by a high proportion of active substance in the cement.
