Maxillofacial prosthetics is an important and recognized sub-discipline of prosthodontics that forms a key component of postgraduate training programmes. General dentists have a role to play in the management of maxillofacial defect patients even though treatment usually requires a multidisciplinary approach in an institutional environment. Maxillofacial prosthetic cases frequently present with complex histories but simple patient goals. The conservatively managed implant-retained auricular prosthesis, speech aid prosthesis and orbital prosthesis cases described in this report were completed in a postgraduate clinical residency program and highlight the intrinsic complexities, challenges and ultimately satisfaction related to cases of this nature.
颌面修复是口腔修复学的一个重要分支,也是研究生培训课程的重要组成部分。尽管治疗通常需要在机构环境中采用多学科方法,但普通牙医在颌面缺损患者的管理中也发挥着作用。颌面修复病例通常具有复杂的病史,但患者的目标却很简单。本报告中描述的经保守治疗的种植体固位耳假体、言语辅助假体和眼眶假体病例是在研究生临床住院医师培训计划中完成的,突出了此类病例所涉及的内在复杂性、挑战和最终的满意度。
