Abstract:
A prosthesis for a patient with a complete auricle defect can be fabricated with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing, significantly reducing the number of patient visits and improving the efficiency of the production process. This technique provides a digital workflow for designing virtual patterns and negative molds for an auricular prosthesis.
