The fixed hybrid has become an efficient and reasonable opportunity for patients to achieve a fresh new start with their dentition.
Maxillary fixed hybrid denture.
An implant supported prosthesis is an implant on top of a milled bar implants that support a hybrid or eight to 10 implants using fixed bridgework.
Initially edentulous patients were treated with maxillary complete dentures and mandibular fixed hybrid prostheses.
Over the span of many years occlusal surfaces of the denture teeth in the mandibular prostheses exhibited signs of occlusal abrasion and wear sometimes completely abrading the teeth.
A hybrid overdenture is a full denture including prosthetic teeth and gum tissue that completely covers the upper maxillary or lower mandibular alveolar ridge and is firmly anchored to the jawbone with dental implants.
A hybrid denture solves this problem by replacing the gum tissue with pink acrylic between the teeth to allow the teeth to be of normal size and appearance.
The milled bar is screwed into place and the four to six implant prosthesis the intaglio of the denture is shaped to the bar.
The maxillary hybrid denture was screwed onto the unique abutments used only for the cresco system and mandibular implant supported restorations ceramco dentsply burlinton nj were cemented the same day figures 3 and and5.
Denture teeth were used in both prostheses.
Success or failure is in our hands.
