Abstract
Prosthodontic rehabilitation of a surgically resected/reconstructed jaw with a conventional tissue-borne dental prosthesis is often challenging, if not impossible, because of the suboptimal conditions of the soft and hard tissue topography/architecture of the reconstructed site. Placing dental implants in grafted bone to provide appropriate support, stability, and retention for prosthodontic rehabilitation offers the potential for improved oral function. There are, however, some clinical conditions for which an implant-supported removable prosthesis may be preferred to a fixed implant prosthesis. This clinical report describes the design and fabrication of a milled bar and a tooth- and implant-supported removable dental prosthesis for oral rehabilitation of a reconstructed mandible, which considers patient factors associated with oral and financial conditions, ease of oral hygiene procedures, and long-term maintenance.
