Abstract (english)
The atrophic edentulous maxilla is demanding for dental implant placement because of extensive resorption of the alveolar ridge after teeth loss and, consequently, the proximity of the anatomical structures, nasal cavity, and maxillary sinus. Treatment options are short implants, guided bone regeneration, onlay grafts, Le Fort I osteotomy with interpositional bone grafting, distraction osteogenesis, or nasal floor elevation. Nasal floor elevation is a method of augmentation of premaxilla by raising the base of the nose. The aim of this case report is to evaluate the success of implants placed after nasal floor elevation. A 75-year-old female patient came to the Clinical Department of Oral Surgery, University Hospital Centre Zagreb, unsatisfied with her complete removable denture. Clinical and radiological examination revealed severe maxillary alveolar ridge atrophy. Nasal floor elevation was made under local anesthesia through aperture piriformis and lateral window in the distal part. After eight months, four implants were placed and, after period of osseointegration, a bar-retained implant overdenture was made. This case report shows that nasal floor augmentation can be considered among the surgical techniques to allow implant-supported rehabilitation of the atrophic anterior maxilla.
