RECENT MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUES IN MAXILLOFACIAL PROSTHESIS

Maxillofacial disfigurement either congenital or acquired exhibit a compromised appearance making them incapable of leading a normal life.Advanced digital design tools and virtual reality technologies are being utilized in the planning and design stages of maxillofacial prosthetics. These tools allow for accurate modeling, visualization, and simulation of the prosthesis before fabrication, facilitating better communication between the patient, clinician, and prosthodontist. Virtual reality simulations can also help patients visualize the anticipated outcomes and make informed decisions.
