title: Nasal prosthesis supported with self-tapping implants with bioactive surface--a case report.
abstract: Nasal prosthesis using dental implants and magnetic abutments is a method of choice in replacement of missing hard and soft facial tissues. Nose form, coloration, and texture must be as indiscernible from the surrounding natural tissues as possible. Rehabilitation efforts can be successful only when patients can appear in public without fear of attracting unwanted attention. This case report evaluates on a step-by-step basis the materials and methods including implants insertion.
