    Area of Science:

    • Dental Prosthodontics
    • Biomaterials Science

    Background:

    • Conventional fixed and removable partial dentures are often unsuitable for complex partially edentulous cases.
    • Geriatric patients and individuals with congenital or acquired defects present unique restorative challenges.

    Observation:

    • Hybrid prostheses represent an alternative treatment modality for these challenging situations.
    • This article explores various hybrid prosthesis designs.
    • The mechanisms by which these prostheses retain to abutment teeth are examined.

    Findings:

    • Hybrid prostheses provide a viable restorative option for partially edentulous patients with complex needs.
    • Understanding the retention mechanisms is crucial for successful prosthetic design and patient outcomes.
