Atrophied jaw is a condition where there is insufficient bone quantity to place root form implants. Several treatment plans are available for treating atrophied jaws, including subperiosteal implants. Subperiosteal implants were introduced in the last century. Poor clinical results led those implants to be progressively abandoned. Recently, several Authors suggested a revival of subperiosteal implants as an alternative to regenerative procedures.
An electronic and manual search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases. Publications of case reports and series written in English without data restrictions that reported on subperiosteal implants management of patients with severely atrophied jaws in completely and partially edentulous population. The purpose of this systematic review of case reports and case series was to evaluate the spectrum of subperiosteal implants for severely atrophied jaws using digital technology.
