Aim of study: Sudden loss of finger causes marked psychological trauma to the patient besides varying degrees of functional disability depending upon the extent of trauma and disfigurement. The main objective of prosthesis in this case was to provide a cost effective, temporary, esthetic prosthesis to mask the disfigurement caused by three missing fingers on the right hand till a definitive prosthesis can be fabricated. Case report: This report describes a simple technique for fabrication of a temporary acrylic finger prosthesis for a patient using a novel technique with an alginate template and incremental layering of acrylic resin. Conclusion: The proposed technique is simple and cost effective way to make a satisfactory temporary acrylic prosthesis. .. View More»
