title: The combination syndrome: a literature review.
abstract: Although combination syndrome is recognized by many clinicians, documented observations seem to be rare. The aim of this article was to critically review the literature regarding combination syndrome to evaluate the evidence for this concept. A search of the dental literature with Medline/PubMed through July 2002, focusing on the combination syndrome and related features, was undertaken and combined with a hand search of older references and textbooks on removable prosthodontics.
