Restoration of moderate to severely atrophic jaws with conventional implants require extensive surgical procedures that are expensive, involves a great deal of post-operative discomfort, and does not assure the success of the procedure done and the rehabilitation intended. today. For trouble-free and successful implant placement it becomes imperative that sufficient bone be available (at least 13-15mm length and 5-7 mm width). In such scenarios that require such procedures, basal implants come to the rescue. These implants are specifically designed to allow fixed rehabilitation in severely atrophic jaws and several designs of these implants exist today that have made basal implantology flexible enough to accommodate any situation. They are uniquely and specifically designed for the sole purpose of gaining anchorage from the basal cortical bone and have gone through several changes and modifications in the past several decades. This book will review this unique implant in detail and will provide an insight into the philosophy of basal implantology.
