Prosthetic Rehabilitation of Acquired Maxillary Defect Secondary to Necrotizing Stomatitis: A Rare Case Report
Abstract
Necrotizing stomatits is the necrotic inflammation of oral tissues requiring immediate surgical resection as a life saving measure. Prosthetic rehabilitation in such patients is a challenging task as large amount of ridge and palatal tissue is lost after resection leading to compromised retention, support and esthetics. This case report describes prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient with maxillary defect secondary to necrotizing stomatitis.
