Fabrication of Mirror Image Prosthetic Ears-A Short Review

Abstract: on to a glass plate. The glass plate is inverted and superimposed on to the cast of the defective side and is used as an aid in molding the wax pattern.Non-contact 3-Dimensional (3-D) models of the facial region are made possible with advances in the digital imaging technology. The various steps involved in the fabrication of such prosthesis are:1. Acquisition of 3-D data using scanning.

“…In the literature various techniques have been suggested for sculpting the pattern [7][8][9]. Recent advances in the field of maxillofacial prosthetics for the wax pattern fabrication like 3D rapid prototyping had enabled the clinicians to provide quality health care to patients in need [10,11]. There are acrylics and silicone based materials available for the fabrication of the maxillofacial prosthesis but traditionally acrylic resin had been the material of choice for fabrication of ear prosthesis, as it is economically viable treatment option [4].…”

“…Loss of part of the ear is much better treated by plastic surgery (54), but in cases with complete auricular loss, restoration with surgery becomes complicated, in such situations and artificial ear can be easily fabricated and retained to resemble a natural ear (4,55,56).…”

“…Alternatif perawatan yang tidak dapat dilakukan dengan metode bedah adalah dengan pembuatan prothesa telinga. 2 Pembuatan prothesa telinga membutuhkan ketepatan orientasi dan detail bentuk yang baik, terutama pada pasien dengan defek unilateral, sehingga kesulitan utama dalam pembuatan protesa telinga adalah menghasilkan cetakan yang akurat untuk membuat pola malam 3 . Keakuratan hasil cetakan ditentukan oleh penggunaan jenis bahan cetak dan teknik pencetakan.…”
