Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Reconstructive Dentistry

Background:

  • Ameloblastomas are locally invasive tumors requiring radical resection, often leading to significant mandibular defects.
  • Mandibular resection can cause severe impairments in appearance, speech, mastication, and deglutition, impacting quality of life.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a case of reconstructing extensive mandibular segmental defects after ameloblastoma resection.
  • To highlight the importance of a multidisciplinary, individualized approach for functional and aesthetic rehabilitation.

Main Methods:

  • Detailed description of a case involving a rarely giant ameloblastoma requiring segmental mandibular resection.
  • Pre-surgical collaboration with prosthodontists and implantologists to plan for dental restoration and functional rehabilitation.
  • Integration of bony continuity restoration, facial appearance, masticatory function, and dental rehabilitation.

Main Results:

  • Successful reconstruction of a large mandibular defect following ameloblastoma resection.
  • Restoration of bony continuity, improved facial appearance, and enhanced masticatory function.
  • Effective integration of dental prosthetics and implantology for comprehensive patient rehabilitation.

Conclusions:

  • Individualized, multidisciplinary treatment plans are crucial for managing extensive mandibular defects from ameloblastomas.
  • Collaborative efforts between maxillofacial surgery, prosthodontics, and implantology ensure optimal functional and aesthetic outcomes.
  • Systematic planning leads to more effective and efficient rehabilitation, improving patient quality of life.
