title: The prosthodontic rehabilitation of malpositioned implants in a patient with basal cell carcinoma: a clinical report.
abstract: This clinical report describes the prosthodontic rehabilitation of a patient with a partially edentulous maxilla and compromised mandibular anatomy caused by resection of bone due to basal cell carcinoma. Placement of a fibula bone graft was followed by placement of 2 implants. The implants were malpositioned in the anteroposterior plane due to the altered form of the alveolar bone. Prosthodontic treatment included a maxillary removable partial denture and a mandibular partial overdenture supported by implants and remaining teeth.
