Abstract
Surgical management of oral cancer results in compromised masticatory and swallowing function which affects patient in social and psychological aspects due to reduced phonetic ability and facial deformity, thus, it is imperative to provide applicable prosthetic treatment to overcome such complications. This clinical study describes rehabilitation of a patient with squamous cell carcinoma treated with marginal mandibulectomy and implantation on preserved posterior portion of mandible to provide stability and support for subsequent denture treatment. Kennedy class IV removable partial denture has provided satisfactory results in esthetics and function. Bone level stability around implants was reported to be maintained during eight months of clinical observation. (J Korean Acad Prosthodont 2016;54:126-31)
