Telescopic Overdenture Rehabilitation Following Hemimandibulectomy: Case Report

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) warrants extensive surgical resection of the affected areas of the oral cavity which takes a tremendous toll on the patient’s functioning, aesthetic as well as social confidence. Replacement of such a large number of teeth along with portions of the alveolar ridge and mucosa warrants exuberant planning to ensure a satisfactory outcome in terms of function and patient comfort. The present case report describes one such case of OSCC that was treated with partial mandibular resection and had a large mandibular defect that was rehabilitated by means of a prosthesis using an interdisciplinary approach.&nbsp
