Closed hollow bulb obturator--one-step fabrication: a clinical report.
A method is described for the fabrication of a closed hollow bulb obturator prosthesis using a hard thermoforming splint material and heat-cured acrylic resin. The technique allowed the thickness of the thermoformed bulb to be optimized for weight reduction, while the autopolymerized seal area was covered in heat-cured acrylic resin, thus eliminating potential leakage and discoloration. This te...
متن کاملDouble Investment Technique of Hollow Bulb Denture Obturator Fabrication in a Completely Edentulous Patient
Introduction: Prosthodontic management of palatal defects has been employed for many years. Palatal defects of any extent cause multiple problems in speech, mastication and aesthetics. Obturator prosthesis for an edentulous patient is more critical in terms of its movements as there is no mechanical retention available. Obturators and facial prostheses are important not only for rehabilitation ...
متن کاملA hollow-bulb interim obturator for maxillary resection. A case report.
The treatment of hemimaxillectomy patients include the construction of an interim obturator in the wound healing period. With the aim of simplifying this process, we describe construction of an obturator in a short single visit, in the dental chair with no need for impressions or for laboratory services. The obturator comprises: (i) the surgical obturator and (ii) a hollow light-cured resin bul...
متن کاملFabrication of Closed Hollow Bulb Obturator Using Thermoplastic Resin Material
Purpose. Closed hollow bulb obturators are used for the rehabilitation of postmaxillectomy patients. However, the time consuming process, complexity of fabrication, water leakage, and discoloration are notable disadvantages of this technique. This paper describes a clinical report of fabricating closed hollow bulb obturator using a single flask and one time processing method for an acquired max...
متن کاملCast Retainer Hollow Bulb Obturator for a Maxillary Defect -A Case Report
One of the most rapidly growing areas of dentistry of both interest and need is maxillofacial prosthetics. Malignant tumours of the upper gum and hard palate account for 1-5% of malignant neoplasms of the oral cavity; two thirds of the lesions which involve these areas are squamous cell carcinomas. Most of these carcinomas are diagnosed late, when they invade the underlying bone. The procedures...
