Subperiosteal implants have been a treatment modality for atrophied edentulous mandibles for almost 50 years. A case is presented tracing a patient's 40-year history with treatment of his severely atrophied fully edentulous mandible with a subperiosteal implant and removable implant-borne prosthesis. The subperiosteal implant should be considered as a long-term treatment option in those patients who are unable to wear a lower full denture due to resorption of the ridge and osseous defects that provide inadequate bone for placement of endosseous blade- or root-form implants. This case demonstrates the long-term viability of the subperiosteal implant.
骨膜下种植体作为萎缩性无牙下颌骨的一种治疗方式已近50年。本文呈现了一个病例，追踪了一名患者40年来使用骨膜下种植体和可摘种植体支持式修复体治疗严重萎缩性全口无牙下颌骨的历程。对于那些由于牙槽嵴吸收和骨缺损而无法佩戴下颌全口义齿，且没有足够骨量来植入骨内叶片状或根形种植体的患者，骨膜下种植体应被视为一种长期治疗选择。该病例证明了骨膜下种植体的长期可行性。
