Recently the technology of the Strategic Implant ® has gained popularity worldwide, owing to its unique horizontal retention design that functions by getting engaged into the basal (2 nd or 3 rd) cortical bone, thus allowing it to be placed even in those cases, where the vertical bone supply is reduced such as moderate to severe or even ultimately resorbed ridges. The aim of this paper is to present the clinical application of a new, smooth surfaced single-piece bi-cortical screw implants(with multiunit abutment) with immediate loading protocol to restore partially edentulous distal maxilla without sinus lift procedure. Here, we report the case of a 50-year-old, healthy female patient with a history of bilaterally missing maxillary posterior teeth. We restored thepremolars and molars with fixed screw retained prosthesis within 72 hours offlaplesscortical screw implants placement (comprising multi-unit abutment heads).
