Aim Acid etched surface implants determine high clinical success rates, but little information is available about early loading in the posterior region of the maxilla, area at risk of failure. The aim of this work is to present two case reports of oral rehabilitation through acid etched surface implants (Osseotite, Implant Innovations - 3i, West Palm Beach, FL) loaded two months after insertion in the posterior maxilla. Materials and methods The success of Osseotite implants was assessed 12 and 24 months after prosthetic loading according to Albrektsson et al. criteria (1986). Results No clinical or radiographic signs of implant failure were observed during the two years follow-up. Conclusions The Osseotite implants placed in the posterior maxilla seemed to support a functional loading applied two months after insertion.

Abstract
Aim Acid etched surface implants determine high clinical success rates, but little information is available about early loading in the posterior region of the maxilla, area at risk of failure. The aim of this work is to present two case reports of oral rehabilitation through acid etched surface implants (Osseotite, Implant Innovations - 3i, West Palm Beach, FL) loaded two months after insertion in the posterior maxilla. Materials and methods The success of Osseotite implants was assessed 12 and 24 months after prosthetic loading according to Albrektsson et al. criteria (1986). Results No clinical or radiographic signs of implant failure were observed during the two years follow-up. Conclusions The Osseotite implants placed in the posterior maxilla seemed to support a functional loading applied two months after insertion.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
