Maksillo Fasyal Protezler
Abstract
The use of maxillo facial prostheses is crucial in the successful care of patients who experience oral and facial deformities due to accidents, cancer surgery, or congenital conditions. These prosthetic solutions help quickly restore function and appearance, shorten hospitalization time, and offer psychological benefits by enabling patients to return to daily life. This article discusses techniques, indications, and results from five clinical cases.
