ABSTRACT

The „All-on-4‟ treatment concept is based on the insertion of four implants in the anterior region of completely edentulous jaws to support an immediate implant-supported fixed prosthesis. Combination of tilted and straight implants for supporting fixed prostheses can be considered a significant treatment modality leading to a simpler procedure, with less morbidity, reduced financial costs and a more comfortable postsurgical period for the patients. The authors have presented a case report with multiple missing teeth in maxillary arch resulting in difficulty in chewing and poor esthetics.
