An esthetic modification of a nasal conformer.
Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry 2018 July 11
Facial contractures caused by burns can collapse the nasal aperture and lead to airway obstruction. Management in such situations requires surgical and prosthetic intervention. Prosthetically, although a nasal conformer is the treatment of choice, even a well-fabricated nasal conformer may be esthetically unappealing and require an aid for enhanced retention. Expensive implant-aided conformers are not always a viable option. This article introduces a technique for fabricating a nasal conformer that is both esthetically appealing and cost-effective. The technique is illustrated by the treatment of a 12-year-old girl who presented with a history of burn injuries leading to nasal contracture that was effectively managed with this concept.
