Application of Rapid Prototyping in Maxillofacial Surgery

Journal Title: Machine Design - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 3

Abstract

Nowadays, despite very high precision of medical procedures and equipment, improving of pre-operative and operative processes is always desirable. This multidisciplinary paper deals with the application of 3D modelling and printing in the pre-operational planning stages in maxillofacial surgery. By applying of these methods significant benefits were achieved before and during the operation, the time patient spent in anaesthesia is shortened, and the potential for error is significantly reduced, which is the main goal of all trends in modern medical science.
