Hybrid prostheses provide functional, aesthetic and psychological advantages
Implant-supported hybrid prostheses, which can be used in both complete and partial tooth deficiencies, provide the comfort of fixed prosthesis for patients, while offering ease of removal for physicians for any repair or control purposes.
Stating that hybrid prostheses provide many functional, aesthetic and psychological advantages, Bayındır Health Group, one of the group companies of Türkiye İş Bankası, Bayındır Fenerbahçe Dental Clinic Prosthesis Specialist Dr. Dt. Kübra Yıldız Domaniç gave detailed information about hybrid prostheses.
Hybrid prostheses are accepted as restorations that are produced using an acrylic base and artificial teeth or porcelain teeth on a substructure made of different metal alloys and placed in the mouth with screw holders.
Hybrid dentures can be used in complete missing teeth
Stating that hybrid prostheses can be used in both complete and partial tooth deficiencies, Bayındır Fenerbahçe Dental Clinic Prosthesis Specialist Dr. Dt. Kübra Yıldız Domaniç said, “Hybrid prostheses can be applied in the treatment of bone and soft tissues of patients with moderate and severe bone resorption, in edentulous ridges where there is too much bone loss as a result of tumoral resection, in irregular alveolar bone resorption and in cases where upper jaw lip support is desired. The first criterion to be taken as a basis in deciding the construction of this type of prosthesis is the distance between the jaws. In addition, lip support, the high smile line in the upper jaw, the lower jaw lip line in speaking are also taken into account.
Hybrid prostheses provide fixed prosthesis comfort
Stating that with the technological developments over time, alternatives and developments have occurred in the selection of infrastructure and superstructure materials, in the production technique and in the design of the restoration. Dt. Kübra Yıldız Domaniç said, “Hybrid prostheses placed in the mouth with screws provide the comfort of fixed prosthesis for patients, while offering ease of removal for physicians for any repair or control purposes. Thanks to hybrid prostheses, two different tissues are reconstructed. These tissues are known as gingival and surrounding tissues and dental hard tissues. Hybrid prostheses, which are economically viable, offer many functional, aesthetic and psychological advantages to patients when compared to implant-supported fixed prostheses. Stress caused by occlusal forces can be reduced with hybrid prostheses. Implant supported hybrid prostheses; It is a treatment option that can be preferred due to its advantages such as solving the problems of the access road, passive compliance of the restoration, moving the marginal border of the restoration to the area that can be cleaned, and meeting the extraoral soft tissue support and aesthetics at the desired level. In addition, it is of great importance that the prosthesis is easy to remove by the physician when necessary, and that it has advantages such as splinting the implants together and distributing the chewing force to all implants. In addition, acrylic material in implant supported hybrid prostheses; It can be preferred because of its advantages such as low cost, ease of polishing and repair when necessary.
Regular control of hybrid prostheses is a must!
Stating that the materials used in hybrid prostheses do not have any side effects, Dr. Dt. Kübra Yıldız Domaniç said, “As the materials used in the mouth are tissue-friendly materials that have been studied before, they do not have any side effects. Generally, some metal alloys, titanium, zirconium and up-to-date aesthetic infrastructure materials such as PEEK are used. As a result, both hard and soft tissues lost with hybrid prostheses can be replaced in the best way. Aesthetically and functionally satisfactory results can be obtained. The hybrid prosthesis is no different from a conventional prosthesis treatment. At least 5-6 consecutive sessions are applied to the patients. After the prosthesis is finished, a control session is also applied. This is a very important situation for the long-term success of the prosthesis and implants. Patients are asked to come to their check-ups regularly between 6 and 12 months," he concluded.
