Published: March 2023

Papillon-Lefevere syndrome (PLS) is a rare disorder with severe oral manifestations resulting in premature tooth loss at an early stage of life. As a result, extensive bone resorption pattern in the maxilla negates conventional implant treatment in the majority of cases. This clinical report describes a prosthetic rehabilitation revision of a 26-year-old female diagnosed with PLS using an implant supported fixed complete denture with a quad zygoma approach. A 1 year follow-up is also presented.
