Total functional reconstruction of the lower jaw often falls short of ideal goals. While reconstructive techniques are available to close large defects with both hard and soft tissue, the insertion of a prosthetic dental appliance and the return to normal masticatory function are often technically impossible or not even attempted. Presented here is a case report of a patient successfully rehabilitated with a fixed dental appliance supported by jaw fixtures osseointegrated into a vascularized iliac crest mandibular reconstruction. At present, 6 additional patients have had mandibular reconstructions and are in various phases of functional dental rehabilitation. When these data are complete, a series report will be presented for publication.
