ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the feasibility of creating a 3D-CAD model of craniofacial prostheses through mirror technique to repair the unilateral craniofacial defects and restore craniofacial symmetry.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Patients with unilateral craniofacial defects underwent spiral CT scanning. CAD3-D image was reconstructed ad 3-D CAD model of craniofacial prosthesis was created with mirror technique, Boolean operation and rapid prototyping technique. Then the prosthesis made of bioactive artificial bone was made through plaster cavity block.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>15 cases were treated with no complications. Good symmetry was achieved after operation.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Designing the craniofacial prosthesis with mirror technique guarantees excellent functional and cosmetic results for repairing the unilateral craniofacial defects.</p>
