Abstract

Maxillofacial prosthesis includes all prostheses that restore missing parts of the face. The eyes are the first features of the face to be noticed, so their rehabilitation is one of the most critical procedures and needs a lot of attention to look natural, so it must be done by an expert. Here, we have tried to explain the construction of an orbital Prosthesis in a step-by-step manner so that it can be understood even by beginners. Using the guide in a sequential manner helps to create and color the orbital prosthesis with less complexity and better results, as shown in this case with a four-year follow-up. © 2026, Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
