KOS® Implants: A Case of Full Mouth Rehabilitation in One Day

Full-mouth rehabilitation in edentulous patients remains a clinical challenge, particularly when bone resorption and prosthetic instability are present.This report discusses the case of a 56-year-old female patient with long-term edentulism and compromised removable prostheses who underwent extraction of the remaining anterior lower teeth and immediate placement of 22 single-piece compressive KOS® (Dr.Ihde Dental AG, Gommiswald, CHE) and basal cortical screw (BCS®; Dr. Ihde Dental AG) implants using a flapless approach.Within the same day, provisional polymethyl methacrylate bridges were delivered, restoring occlusion, aesthetics, and facial support.The patient reported superior comfort and stability compared to her previous removable prostheses.Immediate loading with compressive and basal implants provided predictable stability and rapid functional and aesthetic improvement, demonstrating the efficiency of modern implantology in complex edentulous cases.

Abstract

Full-mouth rehabilitation in edentulous patients remains a clinical challenge, particularly when bone resorption and prosthetic instability are present.This report discusses the case of a 56-year-old female patient with long-term edentulism and compromised removable prostheses who underwent extraction of the remaining anterior lower teeth and immediate placement of 22 single-piece compressive KOS® (Dr.Ihde Dental AG, Gommiswald, CHE) and basal cortical screw (BCS®; Dr. Ihde Dental AG) implants using a flapless approach.Within the same day, provisional polymethyl methacrylate bridges were delivered, restoring occlusion, aesthetics, and facial support.The patient reported superior comfort and stability compared to her previous removable prostheses.Immediate loading with compressive and basal implants provided predictable stability and rapid functional and aesthetic improvement, demonstrating the efficiency of modern implantology in complex edentulous cases.
