Abstract

Currently, the “gold standard” for the rehabilitation of post oncologic palatomaxillary defects is prosthetic obturation. While this is a simple and often effective method for immediate oral dental rehabilitation, patients often complain of the difficulty maintaining hygiene. Additionally, patients complain of prosthetic instability following rehabilitation of extensive defects. The shortcomings associated with prosthetic rehabilitation are more pronounced in those patients that require resection of the orbital rim, zygoma, and vertical defects of the maxilla and midface.
