Abstract
Loss of the continuity of the mandible destroys the balance and the symmetry of mandibular function, leading to altered mandibular movements and deviation of the residual fragment towards the surgical side. To regain normal mandibular function for surgical resection of the ameloblastoma, initial rehabilitation was done using avascular fibular bone graft. Prosthetic rehabilitation was done by Placement of four implants in the anterior region followed by fabrication of suprastructure using UCLA abutments and ceramic crowns.Entities:
