Depends on information obtained from the patient, he had an operation due to a mixed tumor of parotid gland in the hospital of Gazi University in 2001. Then radiotherapy was applied. 2 years after the removal of the left maxilla, he had a second operation from his left orbital region because of metastasis. After healing period, he scheduled to Gazi University Faculty of Dentistry in order to make his obturator and orbital prosthesis (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1-dent05_p0459">Figure 1a, b</xref>). During the prosthodontic visit remaining structures and the surgical defect was examined. The clinical findings indicated that the patient had a canine and lateral teeth with combined crowns in the maxilla. Resection site included the half of the maxilla which was classified as Aramany class I. Surgical procedure resulted with an opening between oral, nasal and orbital cavities. Lateral incisor had to be extracted because of luxation. After healing period, porcelain crown of the canine was renewed. Due to the lack of sufficient structures and undercuts for retention of orbital prosthesis, as well as obturator, it was planned to combine both of the prostheses. Implant was recommended to the patient, however he did not accept the implant treatment. In this case combination of the orbital prosthesis and obturator accomplished with an alternative method. It was aimed to reduce dislodgement of the orbital prosthesis combined with obturator by means of an active part during mastication.</p><p>Primarily, a conventional hollowed obturator partial denture prosthesis was fabricated in the usual manner.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b16-dent05_p0459">16</xref> Existing hollow obturator was converted into a hollow bulb by a simple and quick technique<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b11-dent05_p0459">11</xref> using an autopolymerizing acrylic resin (Kemdent, Associated Dental Products Ltd, Wiltshire, UK). Necessary corrections were made after the prosthesis has been worn for a few days.</p><p>After finishing the obturator, an impression of the orbital defect was made with irreversible hydrocolloid impression material (Tulip, Cavex, Haarlem, Holland). Type 3 hard dental stone (Labstone, Heraeus Kulzer, Armonk, NY) was poured into the impression to get the definitive cast for sculpting. An acrylic resin (Akribel, Atlas-Enta AS., Izmir, Turkey) core was fabricated on the cast for attaching the ocular part of the orbital prosthesis. This acrylic core was acted as a base both for attaching the ocular part and for constructing a simple mechanism that resembles a suspension system between obturator and orbital prosthesis. As it is seen in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2-dent05_p0459">Figure 2</xref>, the ocular part was adjusted according to the symmetrical eye and the wax pattern of the orbital prosthesis was then fabricated. After try in stage, the wax model was invested into the mold, and the orbital prosthesis was fabricated from silicone (Cosmesil, Principality Medical Limited, Newport-South Wales, UK) using conventional techniques.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b17-dent05_p0459">17</xref></p><p>Cobalt samarium magnets, illustrated in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f3-dent05_p0459">Figure 3</xref>, (Manyet, Manyetik Tutucular Ltd, Istanbul, Turkey) were used to combine the obturator to orbital prosthesis with an active mechanism. Initially, a hole was opened on the closed hollow bulb to locate the magnet. Magnets were roughened with a diamond bur to enhance the retention of acrylic resin. Autopolymerizing acrylic resin (Kemdent, Associated Dental Products Ltd, Wiltshire, UK) was prepared and placed the hole together with the magnet. Excess amount of acrylic resin was removed and bulb was polished after polymerization was completed. Subsequently, a spherical large hole that function as a space for suspension system in the core of the orbital prosthesis were prepared. This hole was drilled using steel round bur (Medin, Joint Stock Company, Vlachovicka, Czech Republic) to make the spherical space in the part of acrylic core which is adjacent to the oral cavity. The thought whilst making the hole in spherical shape was to have the movement of active part provided in vertical, horizontal and oblique directions in this hole (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f4-dent05_p0459">Figure 4a, b</xref>).</p><p>In order to make this active part, a 0.9 mm round wire (Dentaurum, The Dentaurum Group, Pforzheim, Germany) was taken, and cut in measured length between closed hollow bulb and buttom surface of acrylic core. The tip of the wire was curved due to contribute the autopolymerized acrylic resin to retain. A spherical shape was given to acrylic resin on the curved tip of wire correspond to the large spherical hole prepared before in the acrylic core of orbital prosthesis (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f5-dent05_p0459">Figure 5</xref>). Other tip of the wire was attached to the magnet also using autopolymerizing acrylic resin.</p><p>Tip of the active part with round shaped acrylic resin was inserted into the spherical hole in acrylic core. Autopolymerizing acrylic resin was added to the border of the hole to reduce the opening due to keep the active part in. Thus, one tip of the active part would be in the hole to provide the movement in vertical, horizontal and oblique directions during mastication and the other tip with magnet would ensure the connection between the obturator and the orbital prosthesis (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f6-dent05_p0459">Figure 6a, b</xref>).</p><p>Prostheses were tried in place and magnets were controlled if they function properly (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f7-dent05_p0459">Figure 7</xref>). Necessary controls were done to confirm keeping the movement of the orbital prosthesis in minimal bounds whilst the patient makes chewing functions and mimic movements.</p></sec><sec sec-type="discussion"><title>DISCUSSION</title><p>This article describes a different procedure for diminishing the movement between orbital prosthesis and obturator connecting with magnets by means of an active part.</p><p>Adhesive systems and spectacle frame are used when orbital prosthesis cannot be retained by osseointegrated implants. With few or missing undercuts, however, mimic motion and sneezing can cause adhesive failure. Thus, the orbital prosthesis may be attached to the obturator with magnets or buttons.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1-dent05_p0459">1</xref> The use of magnets is the most efficient means of providing combined prostheses with retention and stability in patients with deformities requiring complex rehabilitations.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b2-dent05_p0459">2</xref> Movement of the orbital prosthesis can occur during chewing in case the connection with obturator is rigid. In a case report proclaimed by Goiata et al,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b2-dent05_p0459">2</xref> connection between orbital prosthesis and obturator were procured directly by magnets. Due to the excess amount of maxillary bone loss, obturator can lose the stability and move vertically.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1-dent05_p0459">1</xref> In such cases, movement of orbital prosthesis away from the tissue can occur if the connection is rigid between the prostheses. The prostheses which are rigidly attached by magnets can have retention failure during chewing functions because of this masticatory strain.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1-dent05_p0459">1</xref> Thus, it is resulted in loss of contact of the silicone prosthesis margins. For that reason, thought to have the benefit of more stable prostheses in this case was to construct an active mechanism which compansates the movement during function. Wieselmann-Penker et al<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1-dent05_p0459">1</xref> fabricated a spring-loaded rewinding device for orbital prosthesis to stay in situ during mastication and various mimic movements. With the similar idea the active mechanism is thought in this case to prevent the movement of orbital prosthesis. A large spherical hole was prepared in the base of the orbital prosthesis on account of the fact that there is a need for compansating vertical movement of the obturator during chewing. Obturator with minimum tooth and tissue support can move vertically, horizontally or oblique directions at the time of chewing. To prevent the movement of orbital prosthesis together with obturator, there should be a space to compensate this movement. Whilst the patient chews, active part will move in the spherical hole so that obturator cannot push the orbital prosthesis away from its place. This spherical hole act as a suspension mechanism. The reason for constructing this hole in spherical shape is directions of movement. During chewing not only vertical movements take place but also oblique and horizontal movements can be seen. In order to correspond these directions the hole was constructed in spherical shape.</p><p>In spite of providing the orbital prosthesis to stay in situ during mastication, the active mechanism also has a function to pull prostheses to each other via magnets during rest times.</p><p>In order to enhance the retention of both orbital prosthesis and obturator, this technique can be an alternative method instead of using adhesives in such cases that endoosseos implants cannot be used.</p></sec></body><back><ref-list><title>REFERENCES</title><ref id="b1-dent05_p0459"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Wieselmann-Penkner</surname><given-names>K</given-names></name><name><surname>Arnetzl</surname><given-names>G</given-names></name><name><surname>Mayer</surname><given-names>W</given-names></name><name><surname>Bratschko</surname><given-names>R</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Minimizing movement of an orbital prosthesis retained by an obturator prosthesis</article-title><source>J Prosthet Dent</source><year>2004</year><volume>91</volume><fpage>188</fpage><lpage>190</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">14970766</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="b2-dent05_p0459"><label>2</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Goiato</surname><given-names>MC</given-names></name><name><surname>Fernandes</surname><given-names>AU</given-names></name><name><surname>dos Santos</surname><given-names>DM</given-names></name><name><surname>Barão</surname><given-names>VA</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Positioning magnets on a multiple/sectional maxillofacial prosthesis</article-title><source>J Contemp Dent Pract</source><year>2007</year><volume>8</volume><fpage>101</fpage><lpage>107</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">17994161</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="b3-dent05_p0459"><label>3</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Koyama</surname><given-names>S</given-names></name><name><surname>Sasaki</surname><given-names>K</given-names></name><name><surname>Inai</surname><given-names>T</given-names></name><name><surname>Watanabe</surname><given-names>M</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Effects of defect configuration, size, and remaining teeth on masticatory function in post-maxillectomy patients</article-title><source>J Oral Rehabil</source><year>2005</year><volume>32</volume><fpage>635</fpage><lpage>641</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">16102075</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="b4-dent05_p0459"><label>4</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Keyf</surname><given-names>F</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Obturator prostheses for hemimaxillectomy patients</article-title><source>J Oral Rehabil</source><year>2001</year><volume>28</volume><fpage>821</fpage><lpage>829</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">11580820</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="b5-dent05_p0459"><label>5</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Depprich</surname><given-names>RA</given-names></name><name><surname>Handschel</surname><given-names>JG</given-names></name><name><surname>Meyer</surname><given-names>U</given-names></name><name><surname>Meissner</surname><given-names>G</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Comparison of prevalence of microorganisms on titanium and silicone/polymethyl methacrylate obturators used for rehabilitation of maxillary defects</article-title><source>J Prosthet Dent</source><year>2008</year><volume>99</volume><fpage>400</fpage><lpage>405</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">18456051</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="b6-dent05_p0459"><label>6</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Wang</surname><given-names>RR</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Sectional prosthesis for total maxillectomy patients: A clinical report</article-title><source>J Prosthet Dent</source><year>1997</year><volume>78</volume><fpage>241</fpage><lpage>244</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">9297638</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="b7-dent05_p0459"><label>7</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Goiato</surname><given-names>MC</given-names></name><name><surname>Pesqueira</surname><given-names>AA</given-names></name><name><surname>Ramos da Silva</surname><given-names>C</given-names></name><name><surname>Filho</surname><given-names>HG</given-names></name><name><surname>Micheline dos Santos</surname><given-names>D</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Patient satisfaction with maxillofacial prosthesis.
