Multiple Implant Restorations - Part 2

3 months later, the implants have integrated.

We did a second stage surgery to expose the buried implants and then placed healing abutments over them.

 

We've decided to give the patient a temporary bridge and crowns to wean him off his removable partial denture.

Due to the date is near to his wedding, we help him to save costs, we did our own waxup.

 

These teeth were carved from a block of wax.

We made a template from this waxup.

This will not only guide us on abutment placement but also help shape the temporary bridge.

2 weeks after healing abutments were placed, we fixed the final restorative abutments over the implants.

From the left side view.

 

Right side.

 

Again, to save costs for the patient, we placed the abutments directly into his mouth, modified them chairside and took abutment level impressions.

The temporary bridge is in place.

We had to do a bit of gum trimming to increase the accuracy of the impressions.

The case is still with the lab.

I'll upload pics of the patient's final restoration once ready.
