This report describes a complex, surgical, and prosthodontic hemimaxillary rehabilitation with a prefabricated vascularized free fibula graft. The treatment was based on 3-dimensional skull and fibula models but avoided software-based virtual planning of the reconstructive procedure or the implant positions. Cast-based surgical guides were used for implant placement during prefabrication of the fibula graft and for the positioning of the prefabricated graft in the maxilla during the reconstructive procedure. This procedure allowed the definitive prosthesis to be attached to the implants of the reconstructed maxilla during the inpatient period.

(1) Background: The objective of this in vitro study is to evaluate the marginal accuracy of crowns created by CAD/CAM. (2) Methods: A customized chrome-cobalt (Cr-Co) implant abutment simulating a maxillary right first molar was fixed in a hemi-maxillary stone model and scanned. In total, 27 crowns were fabricated, including 9 lithium disilicate crowns, 9 composite crowns, and 9 zirconia crowns.

The reconstruction of complex midface defects is a challenging clinical scenario considering the high anatomical, functional, and aesthetic requirements. In this study, we proposed a surgical treatment to achieve improved oral rehabilitation and anatomical and functional reconstruction of a complex defect of the maxilla with a vascularized, engineered composite graft. The patient was a 39-year-old female, postoperative after left hemimaxillectomy for ameloblastic carcinoma in 2010 and tumor-free at the 5-year oncological follow-up.
