From Acrylic to Kevlar

This lovely patient had a previous denture for years, and was ready for something more permanent!

We performed our ‘HalfwayHybrid’ procedure, where we placed 5 dental implants, and loaded a temporary for her to wear for 3 months. After 3 months, we replaced the temporary with this semi-permanent restoration.

Halfway hybrids are a great option for patients to marry the implants, and date the teeth as we say. Since she was not sure what she wanted to do with the lower arch, the halfway hybrid option lets her get into permanent implant teeth, but have an upper restoration that lasts between 5-10 years before having to be replaced.

This is much more cost effective than zirconia or titanium hybrid restorations, and gives patients the option to change the design, upgrade to the more rigid restoration options, or just refresh and re-make what they have, for a reasonable cost.
