Abstract

Prosthetic rehabilitation of facial defects has always been a challenge for Maxillofacial Prosthodontists. These defects not only have functional and cosmetic problems but also have crippling effect on patient's psychology. An early rehabilitation is the key to successful alleviation of these debilitating effects. This case report presents the esthetic rehabilitation of a patient of partial rhinectomy with an acrylic nasal prosthesis tinted with a commercial facial make-up.
