Abstract: Objective To establish exact 3D model and Solid model of cleft lip and palate by 3D laser scanning,CAD and rapid prototyping technology.Methods Ten patients of cleft clip and palate were in this study.Their alveolar bone models were got.The 3D solid model was made by 3D laser scanning,CAD and RP.Results Through 3D digital model and solid model,relative accuracy to the model was achieved of 97.7%-99.01%.Conclusion Accurate 3D solid model can be manufactured to substitute dental plaster models through RP technology.It is more important to the preoperative ananysis,the plan of operation and invention of orthosis.
