- Abstract
- Among the treatment options to overcome the reduced vertical height of atrophied ridges in both posterior maxilla and mandible, short-length implants have been studied for the clinical outcomes compared to the stan-
dard-length implants accompanied with advanced surgeries including sinus floor elevation and vertical ridge
augmentation. In this paper, biomechanical considerations associated with short implants, clinical studies and results including the survival rates, marginal bone resorption and complications were reviewed as well as the treatment guidelines for the resorbed maxilla and mandible.
