    Two-Piece Extraoral Prosthetic Rehabilitation to a Perineural Invasion Lip Cancer
    (Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2018) Şahan M.H.; Eskiizmir G.; Ateş P.
    Lip cancers can severely affect a person in terms of function, esthetics, and psychological trauma. After surgical resection, lip defects require special rehabilitation. This clinical report describes a neck prosthesis of a male patient diagnosed with lower lip squamous cell carcinoma with perineural involvement. The neck prosthesis was connected to the mandibular complete denture with cobalt samarium magnets. Both prostheses improved the patient's mastication, deglutition, and esthetics. © 2016 by the American College of Prosthodontists
