Abstract
LOPEZ LOPEZ, Carmen Eliana and QUINTANA DEL SOLAR, Martin. Smoking patient rehabilitation with hybrid prosthesis on six implants: Case report. Rev. Estomatol. Herediana [online]. 2016, vol.26, n.1, pp.37-46. ISSN 1019-4355.
The oral rehabilitation with implant prosthesis has been incorporated into dental practice as an alternative to conventional treatment in patients with complete edentulous. This treatment has been carried out successfully in recent years and is a clinical reality of high value. This article reports the case of a male patient with a history of being a smoker in which the rehabilitation of the upper jaw was restored with a hybrid type prosthesis on 6 implants. The following describes step by step the elaboration of implant-supported prosthesis, restoring the aesthetics and functionality thereby improving patient quality of life.
Keywords : Implant prosthetics; hybrid prosthetics; implant supported prosthesis.
