Abstract
|
|
|
Often there are edentulous patients with severe vertical resorption of the alveolar ridge so that implant placement in the mandibular posterior is impossible. In this case, implants can be placed in the anterior portion of the mandible and the patient can be treated with an implant assisted overdenture, but the inherent discomfort of the removable prosthesis can not be overcome. However, if implants are appropriately placed between the mental foramen of both sides and a fixed hybrid prosthesis is fabricated to the patient, the patient will be satisfied without the inconvenience of the removable prosthesis. However, the treatment plan should be well designed to prevent disadvantages and expected complications of fixed hybrid prosthesis. Based on my clinical experience, I will explain treatment plan and protocol in detail.
