Post mucormycotic surgery, patient presented with an Oro-nasal communication. Prior to the placement of zygomatic implants, a denture with an obturator was made to assess the preferred location of implants. Following placement of implants (quad zygomatic implants on 1st quadrant and single zygomatic implant on the 2nd quadrant), denture conversion was done. The palatal portion of the denture was removed and a removable obturator was made to maintain hygiene and cleanability. The converted denture will act like a splint for the zygomatic implants till healing.
