REHABILITATION OF ATROPHIC MAXILLA: SURGICAL SOLUTIONS TO IT

This book provides a focused review of the rehabilitation of the atrophic maxilla, a condition that poses significant challenges in implant dentistry and oral and maxillofacial surgery. It discusses the biological basis, anatomical limitations, diagnostic classifications, and surgical principles involved in treatment planning. From traditional reconstructive methods such as bone grafting, sinus augmentation, and orthognathic surgery to contemporary implant-based solutions including tilted, zygomatic, pterygoid, and custom-made subperiosteal implants, the text highlights the evolution of surgical strategies for restoring function, support, and aesthetics in severely resorbed maxillae. This work is intended as a practical academic resource for postgraduate students, researchers, and clinicians.
