Abstract
Introduction: With the advent of digital workflows, subperiosteal implants have experienced a resurgence. They offer a valuable solution for rehabilitating patients with severe maxillary atrophy. However, in cases involving an initial skeletal discrepancy, prosthetic compensation is often required. This report aims to minimize such compensation by combining subperiosteal implants with a Le Fort I osteotomy.
Technical note: Le Fort I osteotomy and subperiosteal implant placement were performed under general anesthesia. The implants were osteosynthesized following the osteotomy, while maintaining proper occlusion through guided positioning.
Conclusion: This technique requires significant surgical expertise. The addition of a Le Fort I osteotomy reduces prosthetic compensation and effectively addresses the sagittal skeletal discrepancy.
导语:随着数字化工作流程的出现,骨膜下植入经历了复苏。为上颌严重萎缩患者的康复提供了有价值的解决方案。然而,在涉及初始骨骼差异的情况下,通常需要假体补偿。本报告旨在通过骨膜下种植体联合Le Fort I截骨术来减少这种补偿。技术说明:Le Fort I型截骨术和骨膜下植入物在全身麻醉下进行。种植体在截骨后进行骨合成,同时通过引导定位保持适当的咬合。结论:该技术需要大量的外科专业知识。Le Fort I截骨术减少了假体代偿,有效地解决了矢状面骨骼差异。
