What They Are (For the news)

Custom jaw implants are patient specific devices engineered to correct skeletal deformities, asymmetry or deficiencies. Unlike standard implants (I hate them), they are designed from 3D imaging and CAD/CAM workflows to perfectly match an individual’s anatomy.
1000518593


What You Need to Know?

-Detailed mandibular/maxillary anatomy, including neurovascular structures
-Bone density and thickness
-Soft tissue coverage and vascularization
-Functional biomechanics like bite forces, mastication vectors

The Team members:

-Maxillofacial surgeon (primary and the most important)
-Radiologist (3D imaging acquisition)
-Biomedical engineer / CAD/CAM specialist
-Orthodontist (if occlusal adjustment is necessary and 2th most important)


Diagnostics & Imaging:

— Cone beam CT or high resolution CT for precise 3D modeling (Specialized X ray scans that produce detailed 3D images of the jaw bones, teeth, and surrounding skeletal structures allowing precise measurement and surgical planning


— MRI for soft tissue evaluation if needed (Imaging that visualizes soft tissues, nerves, and muscles around the jaw, used when soft tissue anatomy or pathology must be assessed)

— Dental impressions or intraoral scans (techniques to capture the exact shape of teeth and bite relationships impressions use molds, while scans create a digital 3D model)

— 3D facial scans or photogrammetry for aesthetics (its a non invasive imaging that records the external contours of the face to evaluate symmetry, proportions, and aesthetic outcomes before surgery)


Material Selection
(These are the type of implants that can be used as a jaw implant)

Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) strong as fuck, biocompatible, radiopaque

PEEK: lighter, radiolucent, elastic modulus closer to bone

Porous or HA: coated surfaces for osseointegration




Safety:

-FDA or CE approval for patient specific implants

-ISO 10993 biocompatibility testing
Sterilization validation

-Mechanical failure and infection risk assessment


Cost & reward

-Significantly more expensive than standard implants..

The biggest question still remains. where did bass on tt do his surgery

I don’t know exactly who is that, but what matters is not choosing the surgeon they went to, but the one who is closer, more reliable, and less expensive.

why tf would distance matter with custom implants? youre adding 5-10% to the cost at most from traveling
 
Nobody believes you.
I don’t know why it’s so hard to believe that I wrote this. There are some good combinations I can use on my phone, like ChatGPT do (—, -), I just thought I wouldn’t dump some crappy thread here.



If you have any questions, I’m happy to answer. I also had a similar surgery not exactly bimaxillary surgery, but genioplasty but that’s in the past. The point is, I wrote this for those who wouldn’t know where to start at first

Because frequent follow ups precise preoperative coordination, and rapid management of complications are critical for custom jaw implant success, proximity affects clinical outcomes more than cost!
