Prosthetic rehabilitation of a mandibular gunshot defect with an implant-supported fixed partial denture: a clinical report.

ABSTRACT

This report describes the clinical evaluation of a patient with a mandibular gunshot defect and the prosthodontic treatment with an implant-supported screw-retained fixed partial denture. Treatment included cemented crowns for 2 maxillary implants and an implant-supported screw-retained fixed partial denture supported by 8 mandibular implants. Despite the implant malposition limitations, the esthetic and functional demands of the patient were fullfilled.
