Abstract

Introduction: Surgical resection of head and neck tumors is an effective treatment, but it implies significant facial disfigurement depending on the location of the lesion. Those patients considered cured need to be rehabilitated aesthetically and functionally so that they can be reintegrated into social functions. The maxillofacial prosthesis is an artifact of low cost, which can solve this need. Case Report: This article reports the case of a 19-year-old patient who underwent orbit exanteration for the treatment of Solitary Retrorbital Fibrous Tumor, which, after surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy, was rehabilitated using an oculopebral prosthesis made of silicone. Conclusion: The case was considered a success and highlights the importance of the dental surgeon in the oncology team and the positive psychological and social impact of rehabilitation
