A Case Report Illustrating the 'Patient Selection' Part of the Workflow for the Rehabilitation of the Edentulous Maxilla Based on Core Outcome Sets.

This case report illustrates the 'Patient Selection' process as part of the GCCG structured workflow for the rehabilitation of the edentulous maxilla, and is according to the GCCG recommendations WG1_Rec1, WG4_Rec1, WG4_Rec4, WG4_Rec5.1 In this report, a 68-year-old male patient presented with maxillary partial edentulism. The remaining teeth were severely worn and he was self-conscious about his appearance. As part of the initial examination and assessment, several treatment options were proposed and discussed, based on the concept of shared-decision. The patient ultimately decided to have an implant supported fixed complete maxillary prosthesis.
