The use osseointegrated implants are widespread today. The first implant-supported prosthetic restorations based on four to six implants placed in the mandible between geneiakon bore and extended overhangs, bilaterally, distally, to ensure posterior occlusal contacts. These restorations were known as Hybrid Bridges (Hybrids) or Still Complete Dentures (Fixed Complete Dentures). Nowadays, this type of restorations are still to be one of the choices of dentist in a treatment plan with implants, especially when anatomical reasons, combined with the reluctance of the patient to undergo reconstructive surgery, making it difficult ...

Nowadays, this type of restorations are still to be one of the choices of dentist in a treatment plan with implants, especially when anatomical reasons, combined with the reluctance of the patient to undergo reconstructive surgery, making it difficult or impossible the Locality -financing of prosthetic implants in the desired positions. Corresponding factors leading to the use of brackets and implant-supported bridges restore partial edentulous. From the clinical and laboratory research carried out so far, it can be concluded that the appropriate design, combined with correct occlusal control, contribute to long-term good prognosis of restorations with overhangs, or used the classic charging protocol or protocol of immediate loading implant.
