title: Implants in the orthodontic and prosthetic rehabilitation of an adult patient: a case report.
abstract: In this case report, implants and implant-supported fixed prostheses were used to rehabilitate the anatomy and functioning of the dental arches in a patient who had presented with partial posterior edentulism. Necessary orthodontic treatment was done using provisional implant-supported prostheses as stable anchorage. When completed, the provisional restorations were removed and ceramometal restorations were placed.
