The prosthodontic prognosis in patients with lateral discontinuity defects of the mandible is dependent on a number of complex factors. In some patients only esthetics can be improved, whereas in others mastication and speech improvement can be achieved. Two patients who had undergone the same surgical interventions but presented with different problems are described. The first patient had difficulty with mastication and mandibular movements, which was resolved by building a ramp on a maxillary prosthesis. The second patient had severe speech and swallowing problems, which were corrected with an acrylic, hollow speech prosthesis. In both patients the end result was satisfactory.
下颌骨外侧连续性缺损患者的口腔修复预后取决于许多复杂因素。在一些患者中，仅美观可得到改善，而在另一些患者中，咀嚼和言语功能可得到改善。本文描述了两名接受相同手术干预但出现不同问题的患者。第一名患者咀嚼和下颌运动困难，通过在上颌义齿上制作斜面解决了该问题。第二名患者有严重的言语和吞咽问题，通过使用丙烯酸中空言语义齿得以纠正。两名患者的最终结果均令人满意。
