Creation and utilization of a digital database for nasal prosthesis models.

Background: The study describes the development and implementation of a digital nose database in order to provide patients with nasal prostheses following rhinectomy. Mirrored data for computer-aided design (CAD) cannot be used due to the unpaired structure of the nose.

Materials And Methods: The faces of 202 people were digitized using a 3-dimension (3D) scanner.
