This prosthesis compensates for the impaired tongue function and serves to improve both dysphagia and speech disorders in patients with post\u2010operative oral cancer, cerebrovascular disease and oral frailty.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>An 81\u2010year\u2010old patient, who had been treated for tongue cancer since theage of 72 and who underwent hemiglossectomy, required palatal augmentation prosthesisreproduction. The existing palatal augmentation prosthesis was scanned and 3D printed. The copied palatal augmentation prosthesis was then adjusted intraorally, scanned again and used to produce a new milled palatal augmentation prosthesis with cast metal clasps.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Result<\/jats:title><jats:p>The palatal augmentation prosthesis was fabricated in four appointments using a digital workflow, successfully restoring the patient's oral function without any adjustments.
