Description

When presented with atrophic arches, clinicians often turn to
invasive techniques such as bone grafting or maxillary sinus
augmentation. However, using tilted implants instead can avoid
these aggressive procedures, allowing the implant support to be
moved posteriorly and for longer implants to be chosen. The
implants can be loaded immediately to support a full-arch fixed
prosthesis in multiple configurations, such as All-on-4, transsinus
implants, zygomatic implants, or the authors’ signature V-II-V
technique. This book first presents the science and clinical
evidence behind the various protocols using tilted implants, then
proceeds to discuss patient evaluation, diagnostics, and planning
before diving into the methods themselves. Procedures are
discussed separately for each arch, highlighted by dozens of
clinical cases representing a diverse range of initial situations. In
addition to the surgical protocols, methods for fabricating
provisional and definitive prostheses are laid out with each step
illustrated and explained. This comprehensive volume truly covers
everything a clinician needs to know to use tilted implants with
great success for their patients.

Authors
Enrico Agliardi
Dr Agliardi graduated with honors from the University of Milan in
1994, specializing in medicine and surgery. At the same university,
he attained a specialization in maxillofacial surgery in 2000 and a
specialization in orthodontics in 2005. Since 2009, Dr Agliardi has
been in charge of the Special Rehabilitation Surgery department at
the Department of Dentistry of IRCCS San Raffaele of Milan, and he
is also a professor in the Special Rehabilitation Surgery
Department at Vita-Salute San Raffaele University. For over 15
years, he has been involved in the implant-prosthetic rehabilitation
of compromised patients with tilted and zygomatic implants.

Davide Romeo
Dr Romeo graduated with honors from the University of Milan in
2005, specializing in dentistry and dental prosthetics and with a
thesis on the clinical efficacy of the All-on-4 protocol. He later
obtained a doctorate from research in innovative techniques in oral
implantology and implant-prosthetic rehabilitation, attending the
dental clinic of the Galeazzi Institute of Milan before completing a
year of study in periodontology at the Department of
Periodontology and Implantology at New York University. He has
been collaborating with Dr Enrico Agliardi for 14 years, carrying out
clinical and research activities on immediate and partial and
complete rehabilitations.
