  • Title: Immediately loaded fixed hybrid prosthesis on a completely edentulous mandible: a case report using an indirect technique.
    Author: Small BW.
    Journal: Gen Dent; 2007 Nov; 55(7):647-55. PubMed ID: 18069508.
    Abstract:
    The immediate loading of implants has been a subject of controversy in the dental literature. At the same time, many patients prefer to have their teeth replaced as soon as possible without having to wear an immediate denture. Immediately loaded fixed hybrid prostheses have shown a high degree of clinical success and acceptance by patients. This article describes a case in which a provisional mandibular fixed hybrid prosthesis was placed within 24 hours of implant placement, followed by a final denture after complete osseointegration of all implants.
