Perfectly matched shape of the custom made implants to the patient’s anatomy makes them the best response to the functional and aesthetic patients’ needs. Standard implants are limited and do not provide satisfying results while complex defects reconstruction or tumors resection. Additively manufactured patient specific implants are mostly used in facial reconstruction, oncologic and plastic surgery.
In comparison to standard implants, custom made implants have many benefits:
• Superb shape matching
• Shorter surgery time and recovery time
• Can be used to reconstruct any skeleton structure
• Not palpable to the patient
• Possibility of obtaining very complex implant geometry
• High level of osseointegration by using scaffold structure inside the implant.
