传统上，制作面部假体需要复杂的步骤和复杂的技能。特别是，由于材料的重量，面部印象可能会让患者感到不舒服，并可能导致压缩。这份报告中提出的新方法可以简化使用非接触式三维数字化和活页夹多孔喷墨打印机的面部假体的制造，而不需要计算机断层扫描或制作传统的印模。治疗时间缩短，术后6个月随访满意。
Conventionally, fabricating a facial prosthesis requires complicated steps and sophisticated skills. Particularly, the facial impression can be uncomfortable for the patient and can cause compression because of the weight of the material. The new approach presented in this report could simplify the fabrication of facial prostheses using a noncontact three-dimensional digitizer and binder multinozzle inkjet printer, without computed tomography or making a conventional impression. Treatment time was reduced, and the patient expressed satisfaction after 6 months follow-up.
