SHORT IMPLANTS. THERAPEUTIC ATTITUDE.
Abstract:
The use of short implants has been proposed as a viable alternative in patients with resorbed
posterior regions unwilling to undergo ridge augmentation procedures. Short implants are
manufactured for use in atrophic regions of the jaws, so, using of shorter implants with osteotome
technique minimizes the need of more extensive sinus floor elevation, thus reducing the duration and
morbidity of the treatment.
