Abstrakt: This article deals with the issue of the management of facial burn treatment using an orthotic device. Discusses the possibilities of using thermoplastic as a suitable material for the production of facial orthosis. It describes the methods of obtaining measurement data of the patient and the subsequent design and production of the orthotic aid using traditional and innovative methods. Subsequently, a model of the human face was obtained using the Artec Eva optical hand-held 3D scanner, which served as a basis for the design of the facial mask in the Meshmixer software. From the conclusions, it is clear that the process of manufacturing a burn mask using innovative methods brings many advantages, in terms of patient comfort and time-saving, compared to conventionally used procedures. After verifying this methodology and verifying the biocompatibility of the proposed material, it would be appropriate to put the methodology proposal into practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
