Three-dimensional printing technologies in the fabrication of maxillofacial prosthesis: A case report.

Three-dimensional printing technology was used for the fabrication of the patient's missing ear. This method eliminated the conventional laboratory steps and reduced the number of stages of the fabrication of a silicone prosthesis. The negative mold of the defect side allowed us a direct fabrication of the silicone prosthesis without a need for waxing or flasking procedures.
