Immediate loading of implants and fixed complete dentures: a simplified prosthetic procedure

The immediate placement of fixed prostheses after the surgical phase is a challenge for prosthodontists using the All-on-four method. This article describes a simplified technique for constructing a conventional complete denture ahead of the surgery date and adapting it to the implants by using a laboratory reline procedure. This technique accommodates the immediate placement of the fixed prosthesis after surgery without compromising the quality of the prosthesis, requiring only a simple dental laboratory procedure.
