Abstract
Prosthodontic rehabilitation of patients with bimaxillary resection involving the maxillae, hard and soft palates, and paranasal sinuses presents a significant challenge in restoring speech, deglutition, mastication, and respiration. This clinical report describes the prosthodontic management of a young girl treated for leukemia who required a bilateral maxillectomy secondary to mucormycosis. Distraction osteogenesis, bone grafts, osseointegrated implants, and magnet attachments were used to provide retention, support, and stability of a large definitive obturator.
