چکیده
One of the most regularly encountered forms of partial hand loss causing physical, psychosocial and financial burden to an individual is the finger amputation followed by trauma. The prosthetic rehabilitation of amputated finger is a good treatment option, when compared to all other means of complex and unaffordable options. Osseointegrated implant retained silicone finger prosthesis with innovative prosthetic designs can provide the patient a life changing experience.

BACKGROUND Finger amputation may result from congenital cause, trauma, infection and tumours. The finger amputation may be rehabilitated with dental implant-retained finger prosthesis. The success of implant-retained finger prosthesis is determined by the implant loading. The type of the force is a determining factor in implant loading. OBJECTIVE To evaluate stress distributions in finger bon...

The eye is a vital organ and an important component of facial expression. Several ocular and orbital disorders require surgical intervention that may result in ocular defects. Loss of an eye has a crippling effect on the psychology of the patient. Enucleation of the eye is therefore normally followed by fabrication of an ocular prosthesis to improve esthetics. The primary purpose of an ocular p...

The success rate of osseointegrated implants is reported to be above 90%. Despite of the knowledge of the mechanisms of osseointegration, some faults still occur at implants systems. Recent researches assign those faults mainly to patient’s prosthetic rehabilitation. The misfit at abutment-implant interface and the missing of a passive adaptation between the prosthesis and the abutment can lead...
