Abstract / |
|
|
Restoration of facial defect makes very special demands
on the maxillofacial prosthodontist. The key to successful rehabilitation
includes good cosmetic result, proper selection of materials and excellent
retention qualities. This case report presents a face disfigured by cancer
which is restored with a silicone nasal prosthesis. Steps of the clinical
and technical procedures of how a light-weight hollow prosthesis is fabricated
are described. This special feature enhances retention and by incorporating
a polyurethane lining, both aesthetics and retention are further improved,
rehabilitating the patient and improving the quality of life. The basic requirements
necessary for a successful facial prosthesis are also discussed |
