Prosthetic Reconstruction of a Patient with an Irradiated Total Rhinectomy with Navigated Surgical Placement of a Single Zygomatic Implant: A Clinical Report

This clinical report details the rehabilitation of a patient who underwent a total rhinectomy, subsequent adjuvant radiation therapy, and eventual prosthetic rehabilitation but then developed an empirically diagnosed medical adhesive intolerance. With the aid of digital planning and real time navigation, 2 zygomatic implants were placed by using a flapless surgical approach followed by early delivery of an interim prosthesis. In spite of the failure of 1 craniofacial implant, definitive restoration was accomplished by using a titanium bar, double magnetic attachments, and a new silicone prosthesis.
