Language: EnglishAlpine, K. D. / Stone, C. R. / Badr, S. E.A technique for the fabrication of a combined obturator and palatal-lift prosthesis is presented. The metal framework embodied the principles of partial denture design. A sequence of steps was used to achieve an accurate representation of the pharyngeal tissues, on which the pharyngeal extension was constructed. This extension was fabricated in an autopolymerizing acrylic resin to avoid lengthy laboratory procedures.
