title: Implant-supported fixed prosthesis treatment of a patient with Sjögren's syndrome: a clinical report.
abstract: Many completely and partially edentulous patients experience advanced xerostomia and have considerable difficulty wearing tissue-supported prostheses. A conservative, maximum bone preservation approach to immediate implant placement is presented. The surgical and prosthetic considerations for treating a patient with Sjögren's syndrome are reviewed and discussed.
