Single piece flexible obturator for the management of complex maxillary defects: A clinical report
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry(2020)
摘要
Cysts, a common occurrence in the jaws, are managed with different conservative and radical approaches. Although surgical excision is usually the treatment of choice, it can result in an open defect that compromises the oronasal seal and affects the patient’s quality of life by interfering with daily intake of nutrition. These defects vary in anatomic geometry and extent depending upon etiology and require a prosthodontic intervention in the intermediate phase until a definitive closure is executed. An unconventional obturator design with a helical spring incorporated into a flexible obturator is described to manage 2 patients with challenging anterior maxillary cysts.
