Abstract: 

This case report describes the management of periodontally compromised teeth with removable hybrid prosthesis retained by telescopic crowns. This kind of prosthesis acts as a periodontal prosthesis and provides splinting action on the remaining teeth by equally distributing the occlusal forces. It thereby help in retaining the teeth longer. In this case report a modification was made by giving anterior metal ceramic crowns to improve the aesthetics of the overdenture and simultaneously obtaining retention from the friction fit of the primary copings and the telescopic crowns. Successful long-term treatment outcome would be accompanied by a routine periodontal and prosthodontic maintenance procedures.
