The manufacture of obturator partial denture after maxillectomy: Case report

Abstract

Introduction: Maxillary resection opens oronasal and/or oroantral communication, which seriously complicates various functions of the orofacial system, chewing, swallowing and speech. In addition, the symmetrical and pleasant appearance of the patient, his mental state, working ability and social life are disturbed. Case report: The manuscript shows a patient who was prosthetically repaired after a partial maxilectomy. Conclusion: The close cooperation of a maxillofacial surgeon and a specialist in prosthodontics can result in the removal of the changes on the maxilla and the creation of an obturator denture that improves the functions of the orofacial system and the quality of life of the patient in general.

The effect of cyclic loading and surface treatment techniques on the Marginal gap of zirconia Inlay retained fixed partial denture with three different designs.

“…However, by employing densely sintered yttria-tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP), which possesses the capability to inhibit crack propagation, it has become feasible to fabricate durable inlay-anchored bridges. [13][14][15] Research have concluded that when considering partially stabilized zirconia yttria based (YPSZ) as a material for IRFPDs in the molar region, the connector size should be between 9 and 16 mm to endure the maximum chewing forces. [16][17][18] To enhance the retention of dental restorations, Wolfart and Kern conducted experiments to incorporate an additional feature into the inlay/box cavity design.…”
