The Esophageal Obturator Airway
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1985The esophageal obturator airway (EOA) has been approved for use in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) since 1973. Complications reported with its use include esophageal rupture, aspiration, and inadvertent tracheal occlusion or intubation with the obturator.

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1972
Abstract In 1969, the same patient, a senior in high school, was wearing the same obturator—13 years since its construction. Even though there was no contact of the obturator prosthesis with the lingual surfaces of the existing teeth, the patient was functioning with good quality speech and no trace of nasality. Another cleft palate patient for whom

Magnetic Retention for Obturators
Journal of Prosthodontics, 2007Prosthetic rehabilitation can be challenging in cases of maxillectomy or developmental defect. This article describes a case in which a magnetically retained, implant‐supported denture was used to restore the maxilla following hemi‐maxillectomy. Use of the Oral Health Impact Profile before and after treatment showed a marked diminution in the number of

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1979
A combination of flexible and rigid extensions can be used on a prosthesis to provide stability, retention, decreased weight, and obturation of residual palatal defects. The combination extensions present a design of a maxillofacial prosthesis which takes maximum advantage of the patient's remaining anatomy.

Anatomy of the obturator region: relations to a trans-obturator sling
International Urogynecology Journal and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, 2003Our objective was to determine the relationships between a trans-obturator sling and anatomic structures within the obturator region. The obturator regions of six cadavers were dissected and distances from the mid-point of the ischiopubic ramus to the muscles, nerves, and vessels of the region were measured.

Assessing effective obturation
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1985The use of lung function tests and sequential radiography appear to be suitable complementary methods of contrasting the effectiveness of obturator prostheses provided in the management of maxillectomy patients. The creation of an oral seal, demonstrable by normal subjects during swallowing and in the production of certain speech sounds, appears to be ...
