Popis: Pleomorphic adenomas are the most common benign mixed tumours of the salivary glands. They typically occur at the junction between the hard and soft palate, but can also be found in the upper lip, buccal mucosa, floor of the mouth, tonsils, pharynx, and retromolartrigone. The present case of a 55-year-old woman focuses on the use of a palatal plate obturator to treat a soft palatal fistula that developed after the removal of a pleomorphic adenoma from the palate. By applying a self-cure resin to the posterior border of the palatal plate obturator, the postoperative issue of a palatal fistula was successfully managed. To aid in the healing of the palatal tissue and provide a scaffold for the regeneration of the surrounding palatal tissue, relief was applied to the intaglio surface of the palatal plate.
