Abstract:

Twenty-two (22) implants placed in 4 Taiwan patients to support immediate full-arch restorations (1 mandible and 3 maxillae) with intact opposite dentition. Passive-fit metal-reinforced frameworks were fabricated chairside by intraoral welding method, and all patients had definitive restorations on surgery day. All restorations were fabricated with implant-level components, screw retained and inflicted full occlusal loading in the first day. Patients were recalled 7 days, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months, with the follow-up period being over 9 months until April 2016. All implants were osseo-integrated, no infection was observed around the implants and no fracture or cracking was found on the restorations. All patients were satisfied with the restorations.
