Results of Treatment of 20 Patients With Implant-Retained Auricular Prostheses

A prospective study of 20 patients receiving rehabilitation for a missing external ear revealed the failure of three flanged implants in a total of 60 placed for the support of a prosthesis and 10 for retention of a bone-anchored hearing aid.

Keywords: auricular prosthesis, maxillofacial rehabilitation, skull implants
