Loading of Craniofacial Implants
Osseointegrated extra-oral implants have been used effectively as the anchoring points for facial prostheses. The success of the extra-oral implants is dependant upon the continuing health of the bone-implant interface, and although the success rate of extra-oral implants is high there are still recorded failures in all the bones of the face. One of the factors that is believed to influence the...
متن کاملRobot-assisted placement of craniofacial implants.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to improve and accelerate the rehabilitation process for patients with severe ear microtia with an implant-anchored auricular prosthesis. A medically approved robot system was used to place the craniofacial implants and a new process was developed for preoperative fabrication of the prosthesis using a rapid prototyping technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS Pre...
متن کاملCAD-CAM Implants in Esthetic and Reconstructive Craniofacial Surgery
In the reconstruction of complex craniofacial malformations CAD-CAM procedures could help generating alloplastic implants to achieve almost optimal esthetic results. Complementary to the existing CAD-CAM techniques in the cranial vault region or modeling procedures in unilateral defects, these techniques are introduced to bilaterally affected skulls in esthetic reconstructive surgery. Surgery c...
متن کاملOsseointegrated craniofacial implants in the rehabilitation of orbital defects: an update of a retrospective experience in the United States.
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Since their introduction, craniofacial implants have been used in prosthetic rehabilitation of facial defects. The literature, however, indicates marked variability in outcomes using implants for the retention of orbital prostheses. PURPOSE A multicenter report updating the experience in the United States with the use of craniofacial implants for prosthetic rehabilitation...
متن کاملCraniofacial reconstruction with high-density porous polyethylene implants.
Deformities of the facial skeleton may be reconstructed using autogenic or allogenic materials. Porous polyethylene is one of the few alloplastic materials currently in use having a well-documented history of reconstruction or augmentation in the maxillofacial region. High-density porous polyethylene, which is shown to be effective as a biomaterial, has additional advantages like tissue ingrowt...
