“…Allografts are the type of bone grafts made from a donor patient's bone tissue other than the person who will receive the graft. Xenografts on the other hand are bone grafts derived from species other than the human species such as bovine bones which are obtainable from non-essential bones of cows [11,12,15,16]. Similar to autografts when using a patient's own bone tissue, allografts and xenografts also have associated problems.…”

Many patients are affected by facial deformities due to trauma or congenital disorders. Reconstruction using bone transplants has been the standard procedure to address many of these defects. In modern times, synthetic materials such as polymers have become widely used in facial reconstruction as medical implants to reconstruct the defective facial bony features. Conventional manufacturing methods can be used to produce polymeric implants, but literature has shown them to be limited in their applications. Many of these limitations can now be overcome by additive manufacturing technologies. This review paper presents an overview of different processes and polymeric materials that can be used to produce cosmetic facial implants.

“…Xenogeneic biomaterials display a similar morphology as human bone and have the potential of being resorbed. They have the potential to be a viable substitute to autograft and allograft (11)(12)(13)(14)(15). Xenograft materials of porcine origin have provoked a great deal of research to assess their potential as a substitute for osseous grafts.…”

Background:The orbital floor is one of the most frequently injured areas during facial trauma. Their proper treatment is crucial for prevention of orbital complications as diplopia, limitation of ocular motility and enophthalmos. Cortical lamina is a collagenated cortical bone of heterologous origin that is used in grafting of non-load-bearing areas.Objective: To evaluate clinically the use of cortical lamina in the reconstruction of orbital floor defects. Materials and Methods:Ten patients with orbital floor defects less than 2cm were associated with one or more of the following complications; binocular diplopia, enophthalmos, limitation of ocular motility or infra orbital nerve dysfunction, were indicated for orbital reconstruction using cortical lamina xenograft. The follow-up schedule was 1week and 1, 3, 6 months postoperatively.Results: Orbital complications had been resolved in all patients. Only infra orbital nerve dysfunction continued in 7 patients where 3 of patients recovered after 3 months and the other 4 have recovered after 6 months.
