Abstract
This report describes a method in which a customized carrier was fabricated for a patient experiencing difficulty during initial brachytherapy treatment, while using a conventional radiation carrier. When designing a customized brachytherapy carrier for a maxillary defect, it is imperative to achieve stability and retention to ensure maximal therapeutic radiation to the desired location. The fabrication and benefits of using a customized, retentive, stable, and comfortable orofacial brachytherapy carrier are described.Entities:
