A Case of Accelerated Rehabilitation: Immediate Loading of Full Mouth Basal Implants.

Basal implantology, also known as bi-cortical implantology, is an advanced system using the dense basal cortical bone for anchoring dental implants, ideal for patients with severe bone loss. Unlike traditional implants that require healthy cancellous bone, basal implants engage with the cortical bone, providing superior stability and durability. These implants can be immediately loaded due to their load-bearing capacity, making them a quick and effective solution for full mouth rehabilitation. A case report of a 55-year-old male with significant bone resorption illustrates the benefits of basal implants. Conventional endosteal implants were not viable, so nine basal implants in the mandible and a combination of basal, pterygoid, and zygomatic implants in the maxilla were used. Within 72 hours, the patient experienced significant improvements in chewing, aesthetics, and overall oral function. Basal implants offer a reliable alternative for patients with challenging anatomical conditions, demonstrating excellent functional and aesthetic outcomes.
