The role of a prosthodontist is not only to rehabilitate the intra-oral and extra-oral structures but also to bestow with mastication, speech, deglutition, and esthetics. Preservation of what exists is more important than meticulous replacement of what is missing . Cu-Sil denture is a removable prosthesis which has holes lined by silicone material that accommodates one or few remaining teeth in dental arch. Retaining natural teeth preserves the bone, enhances retention and patient comfort is enhanced. Anatomical defects in oral cavity are rehabilitated using obturators. Hollow obturators benefit the patient by reducing the weight of the prosthesis thereby improving its retention. This case report describes a Cu-Sil hollow bulb obturator for rehabilitation of a maxillary defect.
