Sumario:The aim of this case report was to show the 10-year follow-up of a zygomatic implant supported rehabilitation treatment to replace the hybrid dental prosthesis with resin teeth - one by one - with ceramic teeth. The complications that occurred were described right from the time when the first implant supported prosthesis with immediate loading was placed, through the fabrication of a personalized dental prosthesis with twelve ceramic crowns, with a view to achieving esthetic excellence and restoring the patient's self-esteem. It was concluded that all patients with zygomatic implants must participate in a preventive maintenance program to assure the predictability of this type of treatment.
