A maxillofacial complete denture for the maxilla and an overdenture for the mandible were prepared for a patient presenting with a disturbance of mouth opening, a functional disorder, and an esthetic problem following the resection of a malignant tumor of the maxillary sinus. In treating the most severe problem, which was the postoperative trismus, it was possible to functionally prepare prosthesis dentures solving an esthetical problem by taking account of the alignment position of the anterior artificial teeth to facilitate inserting of bolus into the oral, and of the vertical dimension to masticate easily. The epithesis, however, had the disadvantage of not being harmonised with the surrounding tissue due to its luster. In addition, retraction occurred when it was thin, making the transition from the margin of epithesis and surrounding tissue conspicuous. The development of a new material which is free from these two major disadvantages are improved is desirable.
