  • * This study compares the effectiveness of conventional maxillofacial obturators versus those lined with a soft-liner, examining their impact on masticatory performance, speech, and quality of life in patients.
  • * Results show that the relined obturator significantly improves masticatory performance (3.22 vs. 2.74) and speech quality (lower jitter), highlighting the benefits of using a soft-liner in prosthetic rehabilitation.

Purpose: The primary objective of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate primary and secondary implant stability values of implants placed into healed free fibula-reconstructed mandibles. The secondary objective was to investigate whether a correlation existed between primary implant stability and the quantity of cortical bone-implant contact and of cortical fibular bone in contact with the implants.

Materials And Methods: The study participants are patients enrolled in a registered trial (No.
