Finite element analysis of displacement with single and two piece hollow bulb obturator prosthesis

摘要

Rehabilitation of hemi-maxillectomy defects is difficult and challenging when there is displacement of obturator prosthesis. The literature lacks data on the displacement of different types of obturators. The intent of the study was to evaluate the differences in displacement between the single and two piece hollow bulb obturator prosthesis in Aramany Class I maxillectomy defect.
