Abstract
Mandibular defects requiring reconstructions may result from mandibular resections due to benign or malignant lesions. Prosthesis-based rehabilitation of such cases represents a challenge due to various anatomical and functional limitations. Here we present a novel design for the fabrication of a swing lock denture utilizing a simplified hinge and magnets for a patient who had undergone hemimandibulectomy.
