A mold-making procedure for multiple orbital prostheses fabrication

Traditional methods of fabricating orbital prostheses rely on the “lost wax” technique to produce a realistic representation of the sculpted pattern produced in the defect. The usual constituents of the mold that reproduces the subtleties of the palpebral fissure are often minute, making them prone to fracture and subsequent dissolution by repeated attempts at pressing each prosthesis. The following method provides a mold resistant to these problems with light-polymerized resin surrounding the palpebral part of the orbital mold.
