Stereolithography is a technique used in maxillofacial surgery to create customized models using 3D printing. The models are most commonly made from acrylate, epoxy resin, or 3D printing and are used for procedures like TMJ reconstruction, facial prosthetics, and complex facial reconstruction. While the models provide advantages over traditional techniques, there are also some disadvantages to the stereolithography approach.
