The Cortically Fixed At Once Approach: A Treatment Option in an Atrophied Maxilla

Abstract

Cortically Fixed at Once implant system are specially designed plates and screw implants which are used for extremely atrophic jaws. The plates, as well as the screw implants, are of varying design and lengths to treat different challenging cases. The hybrid plates are from titanium Grade 2 which makes them strong, thin, lightweight and highly flexible. This allows that the plates may be adapted to any bone anatomy. The hybrid plate is made of one piece solid titanium without any welds or added parts, the high fatigue strength of the titanium plate is particularly indicated for mechanically demanding situations.
