ABSTRACT

 

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients rehabilitated with custom prostheses for atrophic maxillae, focusing on surgical procedure, oral health and functionality, and prosthesis adaptation. This longitudinal observational study followed 21 patients over 24 months. Results demonstrated significant improvements in mastication and phonation, reduction of pain and discomfort, stable functional adaptation, and consistently high esthetic satisfaction from the early postoperative period. Gingival inflammation and oral hygiene remained well controlled throughout follow-up. In conclusion, custom prostheses provide effective and predictable rehabilitation for atrophic maxillae, highlighting the importance of careful planning, continuous adjustments, and regular clinical monitoring.
