Summary
This study introduces a digital workflow for creating flexible palatal obturators for oral cancer patients. This method simplifies fabrication for complex maxillary defects, offering a lightweight and functional prosthetic solution.
Area of Science:
- Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
- Biomaterials Engineering
- Digital Dentistry
Background:
- Maxillary defects post-oral cancer treatment necessitate prosthetic rehabilitation.
- Conventional flexible obturators present fabrication challenges, especially with trismus or extensive defects.
