We take a hard look at custom subperiosteal implants and ask where they truly belong: why well-designed mandibular subs can solve brutal atrophy with durability, and why maxillary applications remain a minefield of thin bone, complex loading, and fragile claims. Along the way, we strip the shine from marketing slides and focus on what actually carries cases across the finish line—passivation, surface finishing, serviceable prosthetics, and designs that respect mucosa, biomechanics, and maintenance.We...

We take you behind the curtain of subperiosteal implant design—what the classic meso bar frameworks did brilliantly, why many custom PSI trends miss critical load paths, and how occlusion often determines whether a case survives decades or fails in months. Drawing on tough lessons from early HA-coated, multi-post maxillary cases and the happiest patients who lived well with two-thirds of a frame, we unpack where repairability, segmenting, and tissue-friendly geometry still outperform shiny shortcuts.We walk through the real differences betwee...
