An immediately loaded CAD/CAM-guided definitive prosthesis: a clinical report.
Dental implants have had a major impact on the treatment of edentulous patients. Fixed complete dentures have allowed removable complete dentures to be replaced with fixed prostheses. A new treatment modality using immediately loaded implants placed with a CAD/CAM surgical template using a flapless surgical technique, then loaded with a prefabricated restorative prosthesis, is presented. This report describes the Teeth-in-an-Hour (Nobel Biocare, Yorba Linda, Calif) treatment provided for a patient.
