Evaluation of patients' satisfaction with conventional one-piece obturators versus two pieces magnet -retained obturators in completely edentulous patient maxillectomy cases.

Ten completely edentulous participants with hemimaxillectomy (8 males and 2 females) were selected in an across over study. Participants received conventional obturator one piece and two pieces obturator connecting by magnet attachment in alternate periods (sequences A-B and B-A), and outcomes were assessed after 1 week,3 months, and 6 months Evaluation included Obturator Functioning Scale(OFS) and Oral Health Impact Profile for edentulous people (OHIP-EDENT ).
