Craniofacial Implant Technology

Craniofacial Implant Technology involves the development and application of biocompatible materials and devices to restore form and function in patients with craniofacial deformities, trauma, or surgical defects. This includes custom-designed implants for the skull, jaw, midface, and orbital regions, often used in reconstructive surgery following trauma, tumor resection, or congenital anomalies. Advancements in 3D imaging, computer-aided design (CAD), and additive manufacturing (3D printing) have revolutionized implant customization, enabling precise anatomical fit and improved outcomes. Materials such as titanium, PEEK (polyetheretherketone), and bioresorbable polymers are chosen based on strength, compatibility, and surgical need. Craniofacial implants are also critical in anchoring prosthetics and dental restorations. Ongoing research explores regenerative scaffolds, smart biomaterials, and integration with tissue engineering to enhance healing, durability, and patient-specific reconstruction.
