The absence of an eyeball results in physical, psychosocial and functional alterations on an individual. Therefore, rehabilitation procedures are essential to repair the patient’s self-esteem, self-confidence and physiological features. The aim of this study is to describe a case of ocular prosthetic rehabilitation in a pediatric patient. A female teenager, 17 years old, was referred to the maxillofacial prosthetic clinic to replace her former prosthesis fabricated two years ago. The new ocular prosthesis was confectioned with termopolymerizable acrylic resin and hand painted with acrylic paint on a colorless acrylic ocular bottom. The prosthesis was installed and the instructions were explained. In teenage patients the prothesis must be elaborated as soon as possible with periodic replacements in accordance with the growth period. The awareness of legal guardians and patients is essential to the success of the treatment in pediatric patients. In the present case, the patient was satisfied with the aesthetic and functional outcome.

Aim: Finger and partial finger amputations are commonly due to traumatic injuries; digit loss may also be attributed to congenital malformations and disease. Finger prostheses are difficult to fabricate as they demand both aesthetic and function. When dealing with these types of prostheses, the only method of gaining successful retention is to sleeve the remnant stump with thin silicone. Case description and methods: A 28-year-old man reported with a chief complaint of unaesthetic look due to amputated ring finger of left hand. In this case, the remnant stump was missing, the adjacent ring finger was splinted and an adhesive retained prosthesis instead of ring retained or glove-on prosthesis was planned. The retention was achieved by extending the prosthesis to palmar crease. Findings and outcome: This article describes the rehabilitation of a finger with prosthesis, which is simple to construct, aesthetic, retentive and easy to maintain. The prosthesis thus fabricated merged with the adjacent tissues providing desired aesthetics and psychological boost to the patient. Conclusion: Final prosthesis was found with adequate retention. The patient was satisfied with the aesthetic of the prosthesis. Clinical relevance Because of the missing residual stump, functional limitations were also there. This clinical report describes a technological process of designing and manufacturing a silicone rubber prosthesis for a patient who has a finger loss caused due to trauma.

Prosthetic Rehabilitation

Surgical defects often have adverse effects on patient perception of esthetics and self-esteem. Rehabilitation of such surgical defects poses a challenge to the clinician. Presented here is a clinical report of an interim prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient who underwent partial rhinectomy for basal cell carcinoma. Nasal resection included part of the nasal septum, the entire cartilage, and the ala. An interim nasal prosthesis was fabricated for this patient 3 weeks after surgery, to provide early rehabilitation. This prosthesis provided a sociopsychological benefit to the patient, and the prosthesis was well tolerated. The spectacle glasses retained the prosthetic nose. (Eur J Dent 2010;4:482-486)

Weight stigmatization is related to emotional and psychological distress including low self-esteem, body image dissatisfaction, depression, and anxiety; all linked with suboptimal breastfeeding outcomes. This qualitative descriptive study explored postpartum individuals’ recalled experiences of weight stigma during interactions with perinatal healthcare professionals and its perceived influence on their breastfeeding experiences. Semi-structured phone interviews were conducted with (n= 18) participants. Three themes emerged: (1) “Size Doesn’t Matter: They Looked Beyond the Scale,” (2) “My Self-Confidence and Desire to Breastfeed is More Important than Weight,” and (3) “I Was on My Own”— Limited Social Support not Weight Stigma Influenced Breastfeeding.

The Impact

Abstract Parental alienation is defined as a mental state in which a child, usually one whose parents are engaged in a high-conflict separation or divorce, allies himself strongly with one parent (the preferred parent) and rejects a relationship with the other parent (the alienated parent) without legitimate justification. Parental alienation may affect men’s mental health: a) parental alienation negatively influences mental health of male children and adolescents who are victims of parental alienation. Alienated children/adolescents display guilt, sadness, and depressed mood; low self-esteem and lack of self-confidence; distress and frustration; lack of impulse control, substance abuse and delinquent behavior; separation anxiety, fears and phobias; hypochondria and increased tendency to develop psychosomatic illness; suicidal ideation and suicide attempt; sleep and eating disorders; educational problems; enuresis and encopresis; b) parental alienation negatively affects the mental health of adult men who were victims of parental alienation when they were children and/or adolescents. Long-term effects of parental alienation include low self-esteem, depression, drug/alcohol abuse, lack of trust, alienation from own children, divorce, problems with identity and not having a sense of belonging or roots, choosing not to have children to avoid being rejected by them, low achievement, anger and bitterness over the time lost with the alienated parent; c) parental alienation negatively influences mental health of men who are alienated from their children. Fathers who have lost some or all contact with their children for months or years following separation or divorce may be depressed and suicidal.

The aim of this clinical report is to describe a maxillary full-arch implant supported restoration with immediate loading performed by means of an entirely digital workflow with photogrammetric system and intraoral scanning. A female patient with an edentulous maxillary arch attended the dental clinic seeking a maxillary fixed restoration. After treatment planning, six implants were placed using a surgical splint fabricated digitally by intraoral scanning of her previous removable prosthesis. Multi-unit abutments were fitted and two digital impressions were taken, one with a photogrammetric system for determining implant positions, and the other with an intraoral scanner for soft tissue registration. The acrylic resin structure of the immediate prosthesis was milled and placed within 8 hours of implant surgery. This provisional structure fitted correctly and provided adequate esthetics and function. Radiographic and clinical follow-up after 24 months observed adequate implant evolution.
