Multidisciplinary full-mouth rehabilitation using minimally invasive dental implant therapy: a report on three different clinical scenarios

Conventional operative dental procedures are being revisited with an approach that seeks to preserve the original tissue as much as possible. Implant dentistry has also seen the advent of various techniques which make minimal alteration to natural tissue. The flapless technique involves implant placement either through a freshly extracted socket or through a tansmucosal punch hole, without elevating mucoperiosteal flap. This paper presents a report on three cases of patient centric, conventional dental implant-based full-mouth rehabilitation, which was successfully carried out using the flapless technique, under varied clinical situations. Each case showed a favourable outcome in terms of restoration of the form and function of the patient's dentition.
