This document discusses the prosthodontic management of patients who have undergone mandibulectomy surgery. It covers classification of mandibular defects, factors affecting treatment, and different types of prostheses used. Key points include that the location and extent of the defect, remaining teeth/implants, mandibular deviation, mouth opening, and tongue function all impact treatment. Marginal defects have the best prognosis while anterior discontinuity defects are most debilitating. Soft tissue grafts are used for marginal defects while microvascular flaps can reconstruct larger defects.
The patient who requires a single denture opposing a natural or restored dentition challenges the clinician even more than the completely edentulous patient does. This is due to the biomechanical differences in the supporting tissues of the opposing arches. So a proper evaluation, correction of the existing factors and proper sequence of denture construction is necessary to give a more stable prosthesis.

Zygomatic Implants
An inadequate bone support requires Zygomatic Implants.
Although Zygomatic Implants are placed when amount of bone is lesser but it also have some complication.
Few complications, during surgery are Zygomatic bone fracture, orbital penetration, Implant head damage.
Post-operative complications are:- severe fracture, failure of Implant, oro-antral fistula, soft tissue inflammation, sinusitis.
Implant placement needs precise hands, and should be perform by impeccable Implantologist.
Dr. Rajat at Dr. Sachdeva's Dental Institute is deft Implantologist.
Thorough experience of dealing with patients and mentoring student establishing next level Implants Dentistry.

Fabrication of functional complete dentures for edentulous patients who have undergone hemimandibulectomy is a very arduous and demanding endeavor.
The most challenging situation encountered during this procedure is the deviation of the mandible to the resected side. The deviation of the mandible to the resected side is directly proportional to the loss of tissues in the area hemi-mandibulectomy has been performed.
In cases with Cantor and Curtis classes II, III, IV, and V, guide flange prosthesis would be a treatment modality. For guide flange prosthesis to be effective, the sufficient number of posterior teeth that are periodontally sound should be present in the opposite arch.
In patients where reconstruction is not done after resection of the mandible, scar tissue formation occurs over a period of time that stiffens the tissues and worsens prosthetic rehabilitation, leading to compromised treatment planning.

5. Classification of mandibular defects
Based on etiology
Acc to Laney(1979)
1.Acquired: - Marginal
- Segmental - a) Lateral to midline
- Body only
- Ramus- Body with disarticulation
b) Anterior body
- Subtotal
- Total
www.indiandentalacademy.com
6. 2. Congenital
- Incomplete formation
- Incomplete ossification
eg) hypoplasias, mandibulofacial dysostosis,etc
3. Developmental
as a result of postnatal insults
eg) trauma during birth, surgery,etc
www.indiandentalacademy.com
7. Acc to amount of resection (Laney)
Continuity defect
(marginal resection)
- Inferior border and its
continuity preserved
- No deviation
Discontinuity defect
(segmental resection)
- Complete segment of mandible
from alveolar crest to inferior
border removed
- Less facial disfigurement
- Mandible deviates to resected
side
- Occlusion rarely changed
- Marked facial disfigurement
- Can be :- anterior defect
posterior defect
- Occlusion altered
- Can be :- lateral discontinuity
defect
midline discontinuity
defect
www.indiandentalacademy.com
8. Acc to Cantor and Curtis (1971)
Class 1 : Radical alveolectomy with preservation of
mandibular continuity
www.indiandentalacademy.com
9. Tissues resected : - Portion of alveolar process and body of mandible
- Lingual and buccal sulcus mucosa
- Portion of base of tongue and mylohyoid
muscle
- Lingual and inferior alveolar nerves
- Sublingual and Submaxillary salivary glands
- Sometimes anterior part of digastric muscle
FEATURES
1. Least debilitating.
2. Sometimes resection of part of mylohyoid muscle and resultant scarring
can raise the floor of the mouth causing reduction in tongue mobility.
3. Ability to shape and control the tongue may be lost due to loss of some
intrinsic muscles.
4. Resection of lingual and inf alveolar nerve results in loss of sensation to
mucosa of cheek,alveolar process,lower lip and loss of taste on anterior
2/3rd of the tongue.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
10. Class 2 : Lateral resection of mandible distal to cuspid
www.indiandentalacademy.com
11. Tissues resected: - condyle, ramus and body of mandible distal to cuspid
- mylohyoid, hypoglossal,anterior belly of digastric, internal
pterygoid,masseter,external pterygoid, pharangoglossal
and palatoglossal muscles, most of intrinsic muscles of
tongue.
- hypoglossal , lingual and inferior alv nerves
- adjacent buccal and lingual mucosa
FEATURES
1 Speech, swallowing, saliva control, manipulation of food impaired.
2. Facial disfigurement apparent
3. Disarticulation and loss of muscles of mastication will hamper mandibular
movements
4. Taste ,sensory and motor losses more extensive as compared to class 1
www.indiandentalacademy.com
12. Class 3 - Lateral resection of the mandible to the
midline
www.indiandentalacademy.com
13.
Tissues resected : all those described in class 2 in addition to the
anterior portion of the mandible, geniohyoid,
genioglossus, remaining portion of mylohyoid
muscle with lingual and buccal mucosa.
FEATURES
1. Restricted tongue mobility due to loss of tip of tongue and
genioglossus muscle
2. Speech, swallowing,saliva control and manipulation of food severely
restricted.
3. Facial disfigurement is worse due to loss of anterior part of mandible
4. Disarticulation and reduction in amount of basal bone reduce
prosthodontic prognosis.
5. Scarring of orbicularis oris can interefere with expression of emotion
www.indiandentalacademy.com
14. Class 4: Lateral bone graft surgical reconstruction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
15.
Lateral bone and split thickness skin or pedicle graft can be
performed on patients who have had:
- radical alveolectomies
- resection of mandible distal to cuspid with
or without disarticulation.
3 types of bone grafts are possible
1. Mandibular augmentation procedures.
2. Bone graft that connect a residual condyle with the larger
mandibular fragment.
3. Lateral bone grafts that extend from the mandibular
fragment into the defect area to establish a pseudo TMJ.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. Class 5 :Anterior bone graft surgical reconstruction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
17.
Tissues resected at time of orignal operation:
- anterior portion of the mandible
- large bilateral portions of mylohyoid, geniohyoid
genioglossus and anterior digastric muscles
- bilateral lingual and inferior alv nerves
- bilateral submaxillary and sublingual salivary glands
- mucosa of lower lip
- anterior floor of mouth
- ventral surface of tongue
The mucosa retained in the labial and buccal regions is sutured to the
residual stump of the tongue and a krischner wire is often positioned to
maintain the mandibular fragments .
Bone graft and split thickness skin graft or pedicle graft procedures can be
is used to restore anterior facial contour and bilateral mandibular function.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
18. Class 6: Resection of anterior portion of the
mandible without reconstructive surgery to unite
lateral fragments
www.indiandentalacademy.com
19. Factors affecting treatment of mandibulectomy patients
1.Location and extent of mandibular defects
Radical alveolectomy
Least debilitating
Main problems – loss of vertical ridge height and vestibular depth
Vertical discrepancy most important when prosthesis supported
by dental implants is considered.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
20. Discontinuity defects
RULE OF THUMB:-The farther anterior the defect, the
more
disfiguring and functionally debilitating
it is likely to be.
Defects of the symphyseal region
www.indiandentalacademy.com
21. Most debilitating and difficult to treat.
Greatest facial disfigurement.
Surgical reconstruction necessary or at least segmental
stabilization before prosthodontic treatment can be
initiated.
Mandibulectomy defects in the molar region more well
suited for surgical reconstruction compared to anterior
defects.
If muscle attachments are intact – Good prognosis
Near normal appearance and function is achievable.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
22. 2. Presence of remaining natural teeth/pre-existing
implants
Pts after mandibulectomy present with few or no
remaining natural teeth.
2 reasons:
1. Pts with greatest risk of sq cell carcinoma are heavy
users of tobacco and alcohol.
2. Teeth are usually extracted prior to radiotherapy to prevent
complications such as osteoradionecrosis.
Greater the number of teeth ,better the prognosis.
Maximum number of abutment teeth should be incorporated in
the design of the prosthesis to maximise stability and dissipate
functional forces
www.indiandentalacademy.com
24. A maxillary complete denture will function well for a
mandibulectomy patient against a reconstructed mandibular
dentition
Exceptions:
Collapse of residual proximal mandibular stump against the
posterior maxillary alveolus prohibiting adequate denture flange
extension.
When a guide flange prosthesis is planned for treatment of
mandibular deviation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
25. 3.Degree of post mandibulectomy rotation and
deviation
Deviation towards the defect and rotation of mandibular
occlusal plane inferiorly
Deviation: Primarily due to loss of tissue involved in surgical
resection.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
26. Rotation:Due to
- Pull of the suprahyoid muscles on the residual fragment
causing inferior displacement and rotation around the
fulcrum of the remaining condyle.
- Gravity. Loss of anchorage of elevator muscles.
Sequelae
Facial disfigurement
Loss of occlusal contact
Loss of ability to bring lips together
Drooling of saliva and difficulty to initiate swallowing
process
www.indiandentalacademy.com
27.
Prosthodontic prognosis in such patients can be
improved by early post resection physical therapy to
reposition the mandibular fragment to a more normal
position and to minimize scar formation that will make
deviation more severe.
Should be carried out as early as possible.After 6-8
weeks post operatively it will not be as beneficial.
Can be in the form of
1.Physical therapy carried out by the patient himself
2.Mandibular resection guidance prosthesis

28. 5.Available mouth opening
Trismus –due to surgical trauma
Physical therapy should be started immediately.
Scar tissue formation will further reduce mouth
opening.
Simple test to check mouth opening:Insert a stock
mandibular impression tray in the mouth.If this cannot
be accomplished rehabilitation will be less than
satisfactory.
Surgical intervention

29. 6.Functional limitation of tongue
- Frequently the surgical wound is closed by suturing
the remaining tissues of the floor of the mouth or
tongue to the remaining buccal tissues.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
30. This compromises: - Speech
- Swallowing
- Mastication
- Control of food bolus
- Ability to control removable
prosthesis
- Lingual vestibuloplasty and skin or mucosal grafting can
be used to improve tongue mobility
- Evaluation of tongue mobility
- In patients whom anterior resection has been done,
ability to lick the lips when the artificial prosthesis is
placed in the mouth may be difficult (due to loss of
genioglossus muscle)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
31. In such cases consideration is given to lowering the anterior
occlusal plane or arranging the teeth slightly lingually.
Speech therapy
Loss of innervation will compromise tongue function and
prognosis of prosthodontic rehabilitation.
If lingual nerve is sacrificed during resection, the tongue on the
defect side will permanently remain without any feeling.
Loss of sensory capability:- Affects speech
Mastication
Prosthesis control
Loss of sensory innervation of the buccal mucosa(long buccal
nerve) and lower lip(mental nerve) will reduce patients ability
to control food and saliva

33. 7.Compromise of vestibular extensions
Vestibular depth is critical for stability and peripheral
seal
It is also critical when mandibular continuity is restored
with bone grafting and implants are considered.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
34. 8.Skin grafting
Skin grafts are used for surgical reconstruction either as lining
for the surface of resected soft tissue or as part of skin and
connective tissue grafts such as pedicle flaps, free flaps etc.
Advantages
1. Effective load bearing tissue.
2. Can withstand pressure and chafing from prosthesis.
3. Protects underlying bone and connective tissue well due to
rapid turnover of keratin producing cells.
Disadvantages
1. No sensory innervation.
2. Full thickness grafts may incorporate hair follicles.
3. Skin is not very compatible with titanium surface of implants.

35. 9.Radiation therapy
Careful treatment planning is required for
patients with radiation therapy
Irradiated tissue is fragile ,sensitive to
manipulation,dessicated,slow to heal,prone
to infection and at risk of osteoradionecrosis
www.indiandentalacademy.com
36. 10. Altered anatomic relationships following
restoration of mandibular continuity
Reconstruction of anterior defects
Most difficult situation for grafting and frequently results in a
graft that is deficient anteriorly.
- Results in a severe Class 2 like situation.
The prosthodontic difficulties seen in rehabilitating such a patient
are:- Inability to provide proper lip support.
- Speech problems associated with mandibular dentition
placed too far lingually.
- Inability to control food bolus due to lack of motor
function of lips and lower part of the face.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
37. - Excessive display of mandibular teeth due to patients inability
to maintain normal lip posture.
- Difficulty gaining adequate space for prosthesis placement
without encroaching on function of tongue.
- Misalignment of remaining unresected mandibular fragments
and resultant relationship between maxillary and mandibular
teeth.
Reconstruction of posterior defects
- More predictable from prosthodontic point of view as compared
to anterior defects.
- The mediolateral positon of the graft is frequently seen lateral
to the orignal position of the mandibular body. Thus the
prosthesis must be built in cross bite to maintain the denture
teeth over the supporting base of the bone graft.

39. Relating surgical considerations to prosthodontic
treatment
Marginal mandibulectomy
Soft tissues are mainly used to reconstruct marginaL
mandibulectomies
They may be: - Skin graft
- Local flap
- Pedicle flap
- Microvascular free flaps
Skin grafts are ideal for prosthetic reconstruction.
However when soft tissue bulk is required or recipient bed is
previously irradiated microvascular free flaps are the treatment
of choice.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
40.
Discontinuity defects
Previously soft tissue local flaps(mainly the residual
tongue sutured to the border of the defect) and
pedicle flaps (pectoralis muscle) were used.
MVFF have revolutionized the treatment of
discontinuity defects.
Microvascularized bone is mainly obtained from:
1.Fibula- most common
2.Iliac crest
Soft tissue MVFF are obtained from
1.Forearm
2.Rectus muscle
www.indiandentalacademy.com
41. Mandibular malposition after bony reconstruction
May be due to:
1. Minimal proximal mandible on the surgical side to attach the
bone graft.
2. Mandibular segments are not stabilized and maintained in their
pre-operative relation to each other during grafting procedures.
3. Delayed reconstruction may not be able to overcome scar tissue
formation completely.
4. The bone grafts used i.e the fibula and the iliac crest graft have
some inherent problems:
- Lacks height compared to the residual mandible
www.indiandentalacademy.com
42. - Pyramidal in shape bieng narrower at the occlusal surface
- Grafted to restore inferior border of the mandible which is
necessary to restore facial form.This places it bucally in the
plane of the cheek.
- Since bone is placed bucally in the cheek implants distal to the
premolar area cause constant soft tissue and infection problems
www.indiandentalacademy.com
43.
Management of mandibulectomy patients
Processed bases
Necessary due to loss of supporting bone ,unusual intra-oral
contours,gross malposition of occlusal contacts.
Allow the determination of the relationship of the final prosthesis
periphery and the buccal or lingual tooth position.
Recording maxillo-mandibular relationship with processed bases
allow the clinician to evaluate retention and stability proir to adding
wax rims or dentition.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
44.
Significant loss of alveolar bone as well as rotation and deviation
of the mandible postoperatively make it necessary for the record
bases to be as stable as possible during maxillomandibular
records.
Extension beyond the periphery of the prosthesis may be
required to support the lip.To add stability to the
prosthesis,occlusal contact may need to be significantly buccal
or
lingual to normal anatomic landmarks that usually denote the
occlusal table.
Pts who have implant retained prosthesis should have
retentive elements incorporated in the processed bases.This
gives the clinician an early idea as to the support that can be
gained for the soft tissues of the face
www.indiandentalacademy.com
45. Methods of recording denture
space
Shifman and Lepley(1982):Neutral zone or denture
space concept for marginal mandibulectomy patients.
They supported this by quoting Fish(1933) and
Brill(1965)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
49. Partial denture design in mandibulectomy patients
Kelly(1965):described the advantages of using combination
clasps
in mandibulectomy patients.He also described a double bar type
of stress breaker which helped maintain the partial denture in
place.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
52. Management of mandibular deviation
Review of literature
Ackerman(1955) advocated the use of intermaxillary fixation or
a guidance prosthesis immediately post operatively.The
prosthesis used a gate hinge clasp for maximum stability during
function.This design is similar to the swing lock partial denture
design.
Adisman(1962) fabricate guide plane splints that were used as
postoperative intermaxillary splints. After healing the fixed
prosthesis was replaced by a mandibular removable partial
denture guide plane.The RPD framework was made of cast
metal with a acrylic resin or heavy wire loop that extended into
the mucobuccal fold and functioned against the maxillary
posterior teeth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
53.
Scanell(1965) stated that a mandibular resection patient should
be seen by a dentist within 7-10 days.He noted that a corrective
guide flange prosthesis inserted early can avoid later difficulty in
mandibular movement.
Swoope (1969) while treating edentulous mandibular resection
patients formed a palatal ramp on the maxillary denture to
broaden the occlusal table and make it easier for the patient to
obtain stabilizing occlusal contacts.
Schaff(1976) described a removable partial denture flange
prosthesis for the patient with natural teeth. In partially
edentulous patients if teeth are strong enough, a mandibular
cast removable partial denture flange prosthesis can be used to
reduce mandibular deviation.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
54.
Armany and Meyers (1977) advocated use of intermaxillary
fixation at time of surgery for 5-7 weeks.For dentulous patients if
mandibular deviation is observed after fixation, a guide flange
prosthesis can be used until the patient returns to intercuspal
position.
Desjardins(1979) stated that in dentulous patients a maxillary
palatal inclined plane palatal to the posterior teeth on the non
defect side can be used as a training device for mandibular
movement. This device is only suitable for dentulous patients.
Chalian et al(1979) indicated that a guide plane prosthesis must
be used if the resection includes the body of the mandible, ramus
and condyle.These prosthesis consist of a maxillary and
mandibular cast removable partial denture framework. A lower
inverted U shaped flange slides against a upper horizontal bar on
the non defect side.
