Abstract

Maxillofacial prostheses, especially those supported by intraosseous implants, are considered a viable and safe method of treating facial defects to restore the quality of life. Head and neck reconstruction can be challenging due to the numerous factors required for successful rehabilitation. Although head and neck defects were once considered irretrievably painful and associated with poor quality of life, advances in surgical technology have made a huge contribution to the well-being of these patients. However, not all patients are suitable candidates for surgery, and many are looking for non-surgical options for functional and cosmetic restoration. Prosthetic reconstruction has evolved significantly over the past decade. Advances in biocompatible materials and aids for visualization and virtual modeling have stimulated further discoveries and further progress. A multidisciplinary approach to head and neck reconstruction, focused on appropriate expectations and patient-oriented goals, is most successfully coordinated by a team of head and neck surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons and prosthetics specialists. The purpose of this article is to describe the possibility of applying the technique of temporary prosthetics using implantological navigation templates and virtual modeling when installing dental implants during reconstructive operations of the maxillofacial region. And also, to tell in more detail about its limitations and achievements.

Key words:

dental implantation, immediate loading, surgical template, precision, maxillofacial surgery
