Panoramic radiograph of the bone tissue. In red circle: the area with the most pronounced atrophy of the alveolar ridge of the upper jaw
After infiltration anesthesia, teeth #16, #17 and #27 removed, a vestibular incision was made and the mucoperiosteal flap was skeletonized. Formation of access to the anterior and lateral walls of both maxillary sinuses with mobilization of the Schneiderian membrane
Isolation of the oroantral anastomosis with collagen membrane Evolution. In positions #17, #12, #22, #25, #27, implants installed according to the V-II-V “All-on-4” protocol. Implant installed in position #15 using a delayed loading protocol
