Lower
Fixed-Detachable Prosthesis
Case 1
This patient
lost her teeth in her 20's. Because the bone loss on the lower jaw was
much worse than the upper jaw, a fixed bridge first described by the
Branemark group in Sweden was placed on the lower jaw.
Fortunately, the bone loss on the upper jaw was not as severe. Using
bone regeneration, implants were placed that could be restored as a
crown & bridge type prosthesis.
