• This study reports about the success in regard to long term follow-up of an implant retained fixed prosthesis on free fibular reconstruction with a single piece zygomatic implant. • It also reports the superiority of using a single piece bicortical implant via a flapless approach and immediate functional rehabilitation. • Remote Bone Anchorage in conjunction with the union of grafted free fibula flap with the native mandible. • Moreover, it demonstrates the long term success of the technique of immediate functional rehabilitation in the fibular graft. Presenting to our knowledge, for the first time in literature, a case report on the long term follow-up of an implant retained fixed prosthesis on free fibular reconstruction with a single piece zygomatic implant and single piece bicortical implant via a flapless approach and immediate functional rehabilitation. The technique involved the concept of "Remote Bone Anchorage" in conjunction with the union of grafted free fibula flap with the native mandible. It was facilitated with a single piece zygomatic implant engaged in the mandible and splinted with single piece implants on the grafted fibula as needed for prosthetic functional reconstruction. The author has reported a unique concept of immediate functional rehabilitation in the fibular graft therefore providing additional splinting of the vascularized free fibula to the mandible by splinting them with single piece zygomatic cortical implant.
