Trimax with around 7mm forward movement and 4mm downgraft.
10.5mm pogonion increase.
Needed a lot of projection on the malar part of the implant, since the patient has a fairly flat midface, which would have been exacerbated by the bimax.
Few key notes and thoughts on the implant design:
-6mm malar projection.
-3mm saddle on the infras.
-Minimal projection on medial part of infra region. This helped keep the taper minimal and avoids too much of the infamous infra implant shelfing/step-off.
-Though we initially tried to do a smaller implant, it became clear that it was necessary to increase its size, so that we could ensure better transitions to the submalar region, zygo arch and lateral orbital rim.
The implants are already sent to production, but curious on your thoughts anyway.
And also feel free to ask if you're curious about the thoughts behind other details on the implant
