Abstract
Mucormycosis has been prevalent in the past few years with the COVID-19 pandemic largely affecting the maxilla due to its proximity to the respiratory corridor. Resection of the maxillary dentition along with the maxillary bone itself has a huge psychosocial impact on the patient. When seeking prosthetic rehabilitation, poor esthetics, difficulty in mastication, and social embarrassment are the patients' concerns. Hence, it becomes great responsibility for the clinician to restore the patient's natural teeth while causing him/her minimum discomfort. This article describes such a case of post-COVID-19 mucormycosis that has been provisionally restored by the means of all-on-four zygomatic implants.
