An Acrylic Immobilization Bite Block for Use During Radiation Therapy: Description of a New Technique.

Caroline T Nguyen, Vincent Sk Lee, Jonn Wu.   

Abstract

Utilizing intraoral bite blocks can aid in stabilizing the mandible during radiation treatment (RT) and minimizing side effects to healthy tissues. This report describes a technique to fabricate a customized acrylic repositioning immobilization bite block that was integrated into the clinical workflow of radiation appointments with no delay in starting RT and with increased patient comfort.
