Abstract

Objective: evaluate the initial results of immediate restoration using 3D rendering techniques after partial maxillary resection surgery. Subjects and Methods: prospective, cross-sectional study on 11 patients who were applied 3D rendering technique to immediately restore maxillary bone defects after surgery to remove maxillary bone tumors. Results: The most common defect in the study was the defect of maxillectomy involving the peri-orbital accounting for 54.54%; 36.36% of the cases are defects of maxillectomy not involving the orbit; orbitomaxillary defect accounts for 9.09%. After surgery, 100% of patients heal and have a good head. 100% of patients did not limit mouth opening after surgery. 100% of patients after surgery have correct bite. Follow-up results from 3 to 12 months showed that after 3 months of surgery, 18.18% of patients continued to eat thick foods and 81.82% of patients could eat normal foods. After 6 months, 100% of patients can eat normal food. No patient's face had imbalance or loss of aesthetics. Conclusion: Immediate restoration of maxillary bone defects after surgery to remove maxillary bone tumors can shorten the postoperative time. Immediate restoration using 3D digital rendering can preserve facial aesthetics as well as chewing function.
