Journal Title: Indian Journal of Dental Advancements - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
Hybrid dentures uses one or more modified natural teeth for support, stability and retention of the prosthesis.1 it is apt to use the term crossbreed abutments as the denture is supported by teeth that range from reduced natural tooth to custom made support within the tooth by post space or natural tooth supported by external metal covering. In convention hybrid denture the crown of teeth are reduced to nearly above the ridge and the exposed tooth is covered with metallic cap over which the denture is fabricated.2 In case of access post retained biologic denture the post is placed within the root of retained teeth and denture is fabricated over the post. This not only increases retention, stability and support besides gives access to periapical areas for any treatment if needed.
