Intra-Oral Maxillofacial Prostheses

These are prostheses made to deal with congenital and acquired defects in the head and neck area.

Who may benefit from these prostheses?

• Cleft lip and palate patients
• Post-cancer surgery, where the surgery has left an intra-oral defect
• Post-surgical communication between the oral cavity and the nose
• Post-stroke patients with speech difficulties
• ALS patients with speech difficulties

Communication between all members of the team treating these conditions is extremely important to assure the best quality of care to the patient.
