"Because implant restorations are becoming more and more
popular, techniques have improved and are much more compatible
with each patient's situation."
Introduction
Clinician's Viewpoint
Our patient is a 52-year-old male with non-contributory
medical history. He presented to the clinician's office for a consultation regarding his dentition, with major concerns that
involved loose teeth along with recessed and bleeding gums
(Fig. 1). His breath had a bad odor and some of his teeth were
missing which was combined with pain while chewing. His
smile was not aesthetically pleasing because

the color of his teeth was yellow. They also
had spaces in between them and he did not
like their appearance. He was interested in
improvement, but did not want to wear
dentures or be without teeth for any period
of time.
Before a comprehensive examination of
his dentition, the clinician took a fullmouth series of X-rays, panoramic X-rays,
study models, bite registration, face-bow
records and also performed periodontal

probings. The patient was then instructed to have an i-CAT
taken for further diagnosis and treatment planning.
During the exam, the clinician discovered severe bone loss
throughout the patient's mouth and that most of the teeth were
non-salvageable. The few that could be saved were not conducive to helping achieve the excellent final results the patient
was seeking. It was decided that the best treatment planning
option was to extract all the teeth and provide him with as many implants as possible
to support individual teeth since the patient
wanted individual, non-splinted restorations if possible. The patient was not interested in a removable prosthesis so the
clinician decided to provide him with a
screw-retained fixed temporary roundhouse
bridge fabricated from composite after the
extractions. If surgery did not go according
to plan, he would be given an immediate
denture instead.
