Clinical Case Report
Prosthodontic Solution for Two Angulated 6-mm Implants Supporting a Removable Partial Denture in a 74-year-old Patient
A 74-year-old woman was referred to the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery at the Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria with retention loss of her upper and lower dentures and resulting pain from the flabby ridge in the maxilla. Her general medical history included common bradycardic arrhythmias (AV block, 1st degree), bronchial asthma, and type 2 diabetes. She was under the regular control of her general practitioner, who prescribed her a number of medications including: Amilostad (Stada, Bad Vilbel, Germany) for hypertension, Singulair (MSD, Kenilworth, NJ, USA) and Symbicort turbohalers (Astra- Zeneca, London, UK) for bronchial asthma, metformin for the management of type 2 diabetes, and simvastatin for high cholesterol. Her dental history included a chin osteotomy 25 years previously. The wires of the chin osteotomy were still in place. To prevent bone resorption, the alveolar defect in the molar area had been filled with bone-graft material during the chin osteotomy after extraction of the molars.
