Abstract
Osseointegrated implants were placed in the temporal bone and were used to retain attachments for an ear prosthesis. A screw-retained magnetic alloy casting was used to retain an acrylic resin magnet keeper, to which a silicone ear prosthesis was attached. The keeper provided vertical support for the prosthesis and facilitated orientation for prosthesis insertion. Stability and retention were provided without the use of adhesives.Entities:
