Maxillofacial rehabilitation of an acid attack survivor - The journey from scar to smile.

Acid attack is a form of violent assault involving the act of throwing acid or any corrosive substance such as sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and hydrochloric acid with the intention to disfigure, maim, torture, or kill. A combination of surgical intervention along with prosthetic management using maxillofacial prosthesis serves a good treatment modality for rehabilitation in such cases. The advent of technological advancements has made the rehabilitation procedure easier, faster, and comfortable both for the patient and prosthodontist.
