The present clinical report describes athe treatment strategy for transition from of full-arch restorations supported, either partially or fully supported by failing implants that need to be removed. More specifically the staged approach proposes a deferred treatment sequence in which the failing implants or teeth are not all replaced simultaneously. On the contrary according to this technique, some failing natural or artificial abutments are preserved momentarily in order to maintain the patient with a fixed provisional restoration at all times throughout the execution of treatment, from the surgical phases until delivery of the final restoration. The present clinical report describes the staged approach in detail, compares it to other treatment options and illustrates all phases of therapy with a clinical case.
