Abstract
Large acquired defects with undercuts can be restored with sectional prostheses. Sections of the prosthesis can be connected with small Sm-Co magnet pairs. The advantages of Sm-Co magnets are that (1) sections of prostheses can be connected by magnets less than 1 cm in size, (2) they can be embedded in thin sections of acrylic resin, (3) they are easy to place, (4) insertion is easy (magnetic attraction enhances), (5) hollow obturators can be used, and (6) tissue undercuts can be used for additional retention of prostheses.Mesh：
