Abstract
Fingers as organs of manipulation have an important role in function and aesthetics. Moreover, for the majority of patients, the loss of the finger can lead to psychological problems. This case report presents the use of osseointegrated dental implants for the retention of finger prostheses. The possibility of using osseointegrated implant-retained prostheses offers a real alternative for the reconstruction of fingers in cases where other techniques are not applicable.Entities:
