Eye defects constitute a major portion of maxillofacial defects which require prosthetic correction for esthetic and social rehabilitation of the afflicted patient. Treatment modalities include implant and acrylic prosthesis. Although implant eye prosthesis offer superior results, they may not be economically viable for all patients. A custom made ocular acrylic prosthesis is a good alternative. A case report of patient with acquired ocular defect who was treated with a custom made ocular acrylic prosthesis which had enhanced fit, retention and facial esthetics to a greater degree.Keywords

The posterior palatal seal area has remained a subject of controversy as far as the marking of the anterior and posterior vibrating lines are concerned. Sometimes, the dentures are over extended or under extended which will either cause discomfort to the patient or will be less retentive to horizontal forces. Then in order to improve its retention the dentist has to perform various corrective measures. This technique describes the visual location of the anterior vibrating line by considering the difference in the colour and variations in the anatomic contour of the hard palate with the corresponding soft palate which is a very important step in the fabrication of a complete dentures or any removable prosthesis requiring post damming.Keywords

The purpose of this case presentation is to review the clinical procedures involved in intentional replantation of a maxillary central incisor following a complicated crown-ischolar_main fracture. The treatment of complicated crown-ischolar_main fractures is often compromised by a fracture below the gingival margin and/or bone. This makes isolation difficult and comprises the hermetic seal that is critical for a successful endodontic treatment. Orthodontic or surgical extrusion with gingivectomy has been suggested; however, these approaches can be expensive, time-consuming, esthetically compromising, and unsatisfactory when the fracture line is deep below the gingiva. Our presentation will discuss the treatment options for such cases and introduce the concept of intentional replantation as an option to manage oblique crown-ischolar_main fractures in permanent anterior teeth.Keywords

Snoring and Sleep related problems disturb the personal&family life of an individual. Further, it adversely affects the quality of life and efficiency of the person. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome&associated snoring since long had been taken care of by various removable appliances made for mandibular repositioning and maintaining the patency of airway.
This article describes one such appliance (NKOSA appliance) which gradually shifts the mandible in anteroinferior direction, and was well accepted by the patients and proved to be effective.

Treatment of cleft lip and palate requires multidisciplinary management but the patient usually becomes a prosthodontist's responsibility, once all the surgical treatments have been attempted or discussed. The final onus lies on prosthodontist to compensate for remaining oral deficiencies.
This article describes and discusses the fabrication of Velopharyngeal obturator (using cast metal framework, heat cure acrylic resin and silicone soft liner) wherein an interim obturator was delivered before the final prosthesis was fabricated.
Impression technique for recording the defect required intraoral extension of loop tray in the mouth as reduced mouth opening contraindicated dual impression technique. Due the non availability of retentive features in the mouth i.e. short teeth, parallel walled extensive defect a cast metal framework was fabricated so as to achieve retention, stability and support for the prosthesis.
