摘要

Obtaining the correct orientation of the stone cast in the fabrication of a nasal prosthesis is a challenging task. The current technique involves repeated trials of the waxed nasal prosthesis on the patient%26apos;s face to establish its correct position. This article proposes a simplified technique to aid in establishing the proper orientation of the stone cast in an effort to decrease the number of error corrections related to midline discrepancies during the wax sculpting stage.
