Abstract

The use of acrylic resins as a definitive material has shown some advantages comparing to other definitive materials. However, their poor mechanical properties remain a major drawback. In this case report, graphene oxide (GO) was incorporated into polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resin for a definitive maxillary rehabilitation, combined with an intraoral digital impression and a three-dimensional facial scan. After 8 months of the placement of the definitive prosthesis, no mechanical, aesthetic, or biologic complications were reported, and the soft tissues showed excellent health and stability. The incorporation of GO in PMMA resins seems to be a suitable option for prosthetic rehabilitation. However, further studies are needed to ensure rigorous scientific support of these techniques and materials.
