<strong>ABSTRACT:</strong> <strong>Background: </strong>The goal of maxillofacial prosthetics is to provide patients with custom-designed prostheses that mimic natural facial structures, allowing them to regain vital functions like speech, mastication, swallowing, and facial expressions. It will take a multidisciplinary team with experience in prosthodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, otolaryngology, and facial plastic surgery to advance this field. <strong>Material and Methods: </strong>A comprehensive examination of pertinent research and publications in the field of maxillofacial pros

The purpose of this article is to describe a deformation corrected workflow for maxillofacial prosthesis modelling based on the improved Laplace and iterative closest point–based iterative algorithms. For incomplete maxillofacial data with local deformed symmetrical features, the Laplace algorithm with rotation invariants was demonstrated that the operations can recover the local deformation while preserving the surface geometric detail; the M-estimation iterative closest point–based iterative algorithm integrated with the extended Gaussian image ensures the precision of the symmetry plane, ma

Cranioplasty aims to reconstruct skull defects from tumours, congenital anomalies, decompressive craniectomies, and fractures in a cosmetically acceptable manner. Since the 1970s, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) prostheses have been manually prefabricated using a variety of techniques. However, more recent computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) techniques appear to have eclipsed these older methods. These techniques essentially involve using imaging from the patient's cranial defect and prefabricating the PMMA prosthesis using a 3D printer. The traditional methods for

Abstract: Facial features are the most important non-verbal means of communication. The mutilation of a portion of the face can cause a heavy impact on the self-image and personality of an individual which may lead to physical and psychological distress. The loss of eye requires early rehabilitation so that the patient may return to a normal life. The primary objective, in each case, is to construct a prosthesis that will restore the defect, improve esthetics, and thereby benefit the morale of the patient.

As there is an increase in the rate of oral cancer,the surge for the various maxillofacial materials is increasing as well. Materials used for rehabilitation of congenital or acquired defects of patients should fulfil the requirements such as function, longevity, and aesthetics. Defects of face which may be congenital or acquired makes the condition of the affected person very disastrous mentally, physically as well as emotionally.

<strong>Abstract</strong> The defects in facial regions caused by accident, trauma, tumour or congenital defects are treated with maxillofacial prostheses. Apart from esthetics, the most common problem encountered with these prostheses is the retention of prostheses. Increase in retention provides easy use and psychological acceptance by the patient thereby up the long prognosis of the prosthesis.

Abstract:

Maxillofacial prostheses are usually replaced periodically due to poor tear strength at the edges, inelasticity, and excessive hardness. Improvement in mechanical properties can be achieved by adding nanosilica fillers. Medical grade silicone as a maxillofacial prosthesis material is difficult to find on the local market and is quite expensive. Therefore, it is necessary to have an alternative maxillofacial prosthesis material that is more affordable and accessible. Clean grade silicone is a non-toxic type of silicone that can be modified by adding nanosilica filler to have properties similar

Maxillofacial prostheses, particularly obturator prostheses, play a crucial role in rehabilitating patients with maxillary defects. The larger the defect, the heavier the obturator, which can affect the retention of the prosthesis. While the weight reduction of obturators through a hollow design is well-documented in the literature, this article introduces an alternative, cost-effective, and precise method for hollowing prostheses. The indirect technique (IT) offers several advantages over traditional methods, including achieving an even thickness of acrylic resin and significant weight reduct

Background: Prosthetic restorations are made to adapt or attach missing human parts in order to restore function and appearance. Maxillofacial defects connote a greater impact on patients, since the face cannot be concealed, and all the senses of the human body are expressed in it. Therefore, in order to restore the patient’s quality of life, they are the ones that require the best possible adaptation to the characteristics of the patients.
