ABSTRACT
Prostheses play a vital role in restoring function and mobility to individuals with physical disabilities. This study focuses on the procedure to create customized prostheses using semirigid molds obtained from additive technologies. This innovative methodology aims to improve the fit and comfort of prostheses.The manufacturing process of prostheses using semirigid molds combined with additive technologies involves several key phases. These include the use of computed tomography (CT) of the affected area, computer-aided design, and the production of custom mold models.This study introduces the main production phases of customized prostheses, based on the strategy that involves the manufacturing of semirigid molds, by additive manufacturing (AM). This approach improves fit, comfort, and integration of prostheses into patients' daily lives. In particular, prostheses for cranioplasty are described in this study.
