title: [Surgical correction of the intermaxillary relation for placement of implants].
abstract: The loss of teeth is associated with alveolar bone resorption. Severe resorption of the maxillary alveolar process may cause persistent instability and loss of retention of the upper denture. Large intermaxillary discrepancies may complicate the treatment with implants to retain maxillary overdentures. Reconstructive surgical treatment methods that create sufficient bone volume for the placement of implants and at the same time normalize intermaxillary relationships, provide the basis for adequate oral rehabilitation.
