چکیده
The present article purports to present a case of implant-supported rehabilitation of a patient who had previously undergone a procedure of fl oor of the mouth squamous cell carcinoma resection followed by radiotherapy (56 Gy total). Treatment consisted on hyperbaric oxygen therapy by means of the following protocol: previous to implant placement: 20 daily sessions, 100% oxygen at 2.4 ATM pressure during 90 minutes as well as 10 daily sessions of 100% oxygen at 2.4 ATM pressure, during 90 minutes after implant placement. Prosthetic rehabilitation was conducted six months after implant placement. It consisted of an implant-supported removable prosthesis with a ring system to achieve retention. Presently the patient is at a two year follow-up period after rehabilitation, and is free of tumor activity in the treated zone. The patient has so far achieved appropriate esthetic and functional results.
