title: Solving complex full-arch cases with simple solutions.
abstract: This case report described a new technique for immediately loading an implant-supported fixed screw-retained bridge that has flat abutments to achieve a superior passive fit. The definitive prosthetic bridge was placed within 72 hours from surgery and follow-up data over a 5-year period are presented. Good aesthetic results were achieved, and at the end of the follow-up period neither biological nor biomechanical complications were observed.
