CAD/CAM surface templates as an alternative to the intermediate wafer in orthognathic surgery

The key to accuracy of zygoma repositioning: Suitability of the SynpliciTi customized guide-plates

“…The osteosynthesis plate finally carries all the geometric repositioning data. More or less similar processes have been reported in orthognathic procedures, using pre-drilling and/or positioning guides or pre-bent standard plates (Bai et al, 2012(Bai et al, , 2010Olszewski et al, 2010;Polley and Figueroa, 2013). Custom made titanium implants have sometimes been reported (Ciocca et al, 2012;Derand et al, 2012;Philippe, 2013;Zhou et al, 2010).…”

Three-Dimensional Computer-Assisted Orthognathic Surgery

“…[1][2][3][4] Computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technique has been adopted to enhance the accuracy of preoperative planning and develop the guidance of surgical procedures. [5][6][7][8][9][10] By incorporating 3D image models and CAD/CAM technique, the 3D computer-assisted technology has been developed to provide accurate guidance for preoperative planning and intraoperative execution for orthognathic surgery. Xia et al and Gateno et al [11][12][13] presented a computer-aided surgical simulation system that included creating a composite skull model, quantifying the craniomaxillofacial deformity, and simulation and transfer of the virtual plan in the treatment of complex facial deformities.…”

Impression 3D en médecine régénératrice et ingénierie tissulaire

“…Autrefois cantonnée à des industries de pointe comme l'aéronau-tique, l'impression 3D se développe et gagne le monde médical. Elle présente plusieurs avantages : faible coût de production pour des séries limitées ou la réalisation de prototypes, optimisation de la matière première qui n'est déposée que là où elle est nécessaire, fabrica-SYNTHÈSE REVUES planification ou des guides chirurgicaux [8].…”
