Edentulism negatively impacts patients􀂶 quality of life. A fixed complete-arch implant-supported prosthesis is proven to restore function and aesthetics and is associated with high patient satisfaction. An immediate loading protocol can provide patient satisfaction in a shorter period, as the time between surgical implant placement and connection of a prosthesis is lessened.
