Abstract

Immediately loaded, implant supported prosthesis is a novel advancement in oral implantology. Corticobasal implants has the versatility and durability with reduced treatment time. These implants work on the principle of osseo-fixation, however, osseointegration of the implants eventually happens over a time period. Cortico-basal implant supported prostheses came to the rescue, in our following cases, where a corticobasal implant was placed in between 2 fractured, well osseo-integrated conventional implants. Another case with large periapical cyst encroaching into the right maxillary sinus floor eneucleated with the involved teeth leading to an oro-antral communication, closed surgically. Cortico-basal implants were placed bypassing the right sinus floor to restore the function. In another case of failed multiple endodontically restored teeth and even endosseous implants, cortico-basal immediate loading prostheses were placed to successfully restore both the jaws. Cortico-basal implant supported prostheses is a graft less procedure with minimized chair side time, having optimum peri-implant soft tissue health, durable, with high success rate and are gradually emerging as a promising alternative in dental rehabilitation cases. Strategic implant placement of the cortico-basal implants has proved to be the ultimate rescuers in certain circumstances.
