Design and Manufacture of Individualized Cranio-Maxillofacial Bone Based on the Technologies of Rapid Prototyping Preprocessing

Design and manufacture process architecture of individualized cranio-maxillofacial bone plate bsed on rapid prototyping technology have been a ordinary method of repair for bone defect in cranio-maxillofacial surgery, plastic and reconstructive surgery, which can provide a new means to treatment skull defect, improve operation accuracy, also save time and rise beautiful outlook. This paper provides a review of rapid prototyping technologies, artificial bone materials and its potential application in cranio-maxillofacial reconstruction.
