Rehabilitation of a Hemimandibulectomy Patient with an Overlay Denture: A Case Report

Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research - Year 2018, Vol 12, Issue 9

Abstract

ABSTRACT Prosthetic rehabilitation of hemimandibulectomy patient, with an overlay denture, restores missing skeletal, dental structures, muscle imbalance, maxillomandibular relationship and occlusion. Conventional management with an acrylic ramp or guide plane guides only the non-resected side of the mandible to occlusion. This case report describes rehabilitation of a 13-year-old hemimandibulectomy patient with tooth supported transitional overlay denture.
