Bisected model, with each half orientated for printing in Meshmixer. This conformation minimizes the overhang angle of the greater and lesser palatine canals, the foramen rotundum, and the pterygoid and palato-vaginal canals. As a result, no support material is required to prop up these structures during printing. This reduces print time and avoids wastage of material
