Abstract :The rehabilitation of an edentulous patient is getting complicated if the edentulous ridge is large and excessively defective. This clinical report describes the restoration of a severely resorbed maxilla of a 49-year-old male patient with a hybrid denture. The intermaxillary vertical occlusal distance was considerably increased due to resorption of alveolar ridge and tuber maxilla. An acrylic resin based implant retained hybrid denture was fabricated to compensate the increased vertical distance and decrease the weight of the prosthesis. After a follow-up period of 5 year it was noticed that the patient was satisfied with the functional and esthetic functions of the denture.
