Abstract
The concept of prosthesis-directed implant-supported restoration is well accepted. The implementation of this principle for patients requesting full fixed implant-supported maxillary prosthetics has not been thoroughly described. We present a technique for the evaluation and preprosthetic surgical management of patients who are edentulous in the maxilla and wish to have fixed implant-supported crown and bridge prosthetics.
