Screws hold prosthesis in place
By means of magnets and titanium screws, the cheap prosthesis is better anchored than traditional prostheses.
1 The doctor takes photos of the face with a smartphone, and subsequentÂly, the Autodesk 123D Catch app converts the photos into a 3D model. The healthy side of the face is reversed, and the prosthesis is digitally shaped to fit. 2 A silicone prosthesis is printed by a relatively cheap standard 3D printer. 3 Primer, skin colour, texture, and wrinkles are applied for the prosthesis to look natural. 4 Magnets are used to anchor the prosthesis to three titanium screws in the skull. The prosthesis can easily be removed and cleaned.
