The facial form and oral function of the patients were restored by dentures for their mandibular defect, using a Swing Lock Attachment in Case I , a part of hinge joint in Case II. But, a little unsatisfactory result was remained, such as the regio-submandibularis form in Case I and the swallowing desturbance in Case II.
