title: [Functional complementation of intra- and extra-oral implants. Apropos of a case of extensive loss of substance of the face].
abstract: The respective indications for oral or extra-oral implants lead to no confusion: stabilization of dental prostheses for the first, stabilization of maxilo-facial epitheses for the others. We demonstrate that the complementarity of the two types of implants can prove to be very useful in maintaining the maxillary dental prosthesis and the epithesis in a case of severe loss of facial substance affecting particularly the pre-maxilla. This complementary characteristic made it possible to recover fairly rapidly phonation and deglutition, and to remedy somewhat the esthetic damage. In other words to create the essential conditions for a return to everyday life.
