Abstract

© 2025 George Warman Publications. All rights reserved. Speech bulb prostheses serving to restore missing soft palate are becoming less common in modern practice. Methods and techniques including material choice have changed, with the majority of reference literature now appearing outdated for newly qualified practitioners. This article illustrates how an archaic prosthodontic complication was managed using techniques based on traditional methods.
