Many of these post-coronavirus rhino-orbital mucormycosis patients underwent maxillectomy for disease clearance. Rehabilitating such a large number of patients with surgical obturators as an emergency in a low-income setting was challenging.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0022215121004229_sec_a2\" sec-type=\"methods\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>High-density polyurethane foam was used to make a temporary obturator for patients who underwent maxillectomy.
