顎切除術を受けた患者に対する、動的リラインを備えたオープンフレーム固定機能ガイドフランジ義歯のデザインにおけるデジタルアプローチ：歯科技術

Oral squamous cell carcinomas result in significant impairment of oral function as they tend to invade bone. Bone invasion often mandates partial mandibular resection, such as hemimandibulectomy, which reduces overall quality of life. To rehabilitate such patients, fixed functional guide flanges position the mandible, improving overall masticatory ability. Custom fixed functional prostheses using digitally assisted dentistry are highly accurate. This technique uses digital technology and a digital workflow to fabricate an open-frame fixed functional guide flange prosthesis.
