Prosthodontic management of a patient with limited mouth opening: a case report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 7
Abstract
Restricted mouth opening (microstomia) is a condition that hinders conventional prosthodontic treatment. The use of sectional or modified dentures and those with a small degree of flexibility has been reported in partially or totally edentulous patients. In the spirit of improving patients’ quality of life, we have attempted, through this case report, to propose a real and convenient solution for a young patient with an oral sequela of head and neck radiotherapy.
