Abstract

Esthetics and retention are two features that need to be in the first place when fabricating a facial prosthesis. In patients with midfacial defects, a restoration with the combination of an obturator and facial prosthesis might be preferred. Although introduction of implant application presents a significant possibility for the retention of a facial prosthesis, challenges towards the limited use of implants direct the clinician to the utilization of magnetic retention. In this case report two similar cases with a facial prosthesis fabricated by the integration of orbital prosthesis and obturator via magnetic attachments are presented.

Özet

Yüz protezlerinde estetik ve tutuculuk her zaman ön plana çıkması gereken özelliklerdendir. Orta yüz defektli hastalarda obtüratör ve yüz protezi gibi iki farklı protezin kombine şekilde yapımı gerekebilir. Günümüzde yüz protezlerinin tutuculuğunda implantların kullanılması büyük bir imkan olmakla beraber, her olguda implant uygulanamaması klinisyeni diğer tutucu unsurlardan olan mıknatıslı tutuculara yönlendirmektedir. Benzer özelliklerde 2 olguyu içeren bu olgu sunumunda obtüratör ve orbital protezin mıknatısla entegre edilmesi anlatılmaktadır.
