| dc.description.abstract | Internal wire fixation applied as a result of the fragmental fractures which occurred in mandible after gunshot injury can cause aesthetic, phonetic, functional and critical psychological problems in the patient. Several challenges are witnessed in the prosthetic rehabilitation of these patients such as retention and stability. The cost of implant applications which can support prosthesis of patients and the need for extra surgical operation after the reconstruction of the defect can affect patients psychologically and make their prosthetic rehabilitation more difficult. Removable denture with perfectly constructed skeleton infrastructure can provide sufficient function to this group of patients and help the patients to comfort themselves. In this case study, oral rehabilitation of the defects of a 35 years old male patient due to the reconstruction and fixation of upper and lower maxillas as a result of gunshot injury is presented. Applied tooth-mucosa supported removable partial denture ensured the fixation of aesthetic, functional and phonation problems of the patient and assured his motivation. It has been shown that removable partial prosthesis designed and applied according to the characteristics of defects is satisfactory as an alternative treatment in mandible and maxilla defects. | en_US |
