title: Simultaneous immediate loading of implants and occlusal rehabilitation: a sophisticated treatment approach.
abstract: The concept of immediate loading has been well discussed in the literature. It was advocated that for success in immediate loading of implants, it is a prerequisite to know the bone quality/quantity as well as the biomechanical environment in which the implants are to be placed. In recent years, several attempts have been made to overcome the inherent inaccuracies of immediate loading by computer-assisted design/computer-aided manufacturing technologies. The purpose of this article is to introduce a novel approach for immediate treatment of a patient's mandible in accordance with correction of an occlusal scheme by using a series of specially designed appliances and principles of computer-assisted surgery/implantology.
