Current options, such as endosseous implants combined with guided bone regeneration (GBR), often fail due to insufficient osseointegration in atrophic bone. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of custom-made, additively manufactured subperiosteal implants in addressing these challenges METHODS: This retrospective study assessed 16 custom-made subperiosteal implants used in 12 patients (10 females, 2 males; mean age 25 ± 2.3 years) with lateral incisor agenesis who had previously experienced early implant failure with conventional endosseous implants. The protocol included subperiosteal implants combined with bovine bone grafts and PRF membranes, allowing for immediate loading and correct prosthetic alignment.
