Abstract
One-piece implants encourage the use of minimally invasive surgical techniques in restoring edentulous spaces with minimal postoperative discomfort and excellent implant survival rate. The compressive one-piece implant can be used for multiple unit restorations with immediate loading in the upper and lower jaws. It can also be used in combination with a conventional implant and it can be placed flapless. The presented case reports offering a treatment modality and procedure of mandibular rehabilitation involving the functional restoration of a mandibular fully edentulous patient with minimal invasive surgical technique with one-piece implant in elderly patients.
