Abstract EN
A restricted mouth opening in hemimaxillectomy patient can create a significant problem with the insertion and the removal of the obturator prosthesis.
Even it poses a problem in impression making due to small oral opening.
A modification of the standard impression procedure is often necessary to accomplish an acceptable impression in the fabrication of a successful prosthesis.
Sectional trays are a good option for such patients.
This paper describes a novel technique of impression procedure and a method of fabricating a sectional tray with the anterior and the posterior locking mechanism for a hemimaxillectomy patient with limited oral opening.
