Abstract

The purpose of presented case report was to show the outcome of prosthetic rehabilitation of a resorbed maxilla with an individual titanium maxillary implant using virtual 3D surgical planning and fabrication using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology. Oral rehabilitation in patients with severe atrophy using a custom titanium subperiosteal implant could be a solution with great potential to solve the well-known problems of traditional implantology. It is also very important to have enough experience with implants in general to reach the skill level to perform custom subperiosteal titanium implants using SLM laser growth technology.
