Impression making, sculpting, and coloring of orbital prostheses.
The replacement of any anatomic structure by artificial means remains a challenge. This is particularly true in the facial area. The replacement must be one which blends with the adjacent tissues as well as replaces the missing structures. Careful planning and meticulous attention to detail in fabrication of a prosthesis can enable the maxillofacial prosthodontist to make a major contribution in the rehabilitation of the patient with an orbital defect.
