  • Title: Prosthodontic rehabilitation of a patient with total avulsion of the maxilla: a clinical report.
    Author: Sykes LM, Wolfaardt JF, Sukha A.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 2002 Oct; 88(4):362-6. PubMed ID: 12447211.
    Abstract:
    Patients with complete avulsion of the palate may require extensive surgical and prosthodontic rehabilitation. The prosthesis should replace not only missing teeth but also lost soft tissues and bone, including the hard palate, residual alveolar ridges, and in some situations, the soft palate. This clinical report describes the prosthetic rehabilitation, after appropriate surgical options had been exhausted, of a patient with bilateral traumatic avulsion of the maxilla.
