Abstract

The computer-aided design of a nasal prosthesis based on pre-operative virtual laser scanning of the affected site was virtually adapted to the post-operative laser-scanned surface. The designed volume of the nose was rapidly prototyped and used to fabricate a provisional prosthesis and a computed tomography diagnostic template to check the available premaxilla bone for implants. The mould for the nasal prosthesis was prototyped using a computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD-CAM) procedure. In addition, the mesiostructure of an eyeglasses-supported provisional prosthesis was also designed and prototyped using CAD-CAM procedures.
