Design and Fabrication of Aesthetic Mandibular Angle Implants
In this patient, where conventional methods and osteotomy could not correct the facial bone asymmetries, custom-made prostheses were used to shape and symmetrize the lower jaw bone in the mandibular angle region.
Treatment Stages
1.
3D Reconstruction of Facial Bones
2.
Analysis and assessment of the lower jaw bone morphology, particularly the mandibular angle
3.
Design and fabrication of a mandibular angle prosthesis to correct the bone form on the right side (to match the contralateral side)
4.
Design and fabrication of a mandibular angle prosthesis to correct the bone form on the left side (to match the contralateral side)
