チタン印刷された切除ヒト下顎頭蓋骨を潜在的な置換モデルとして使用すること：仮説

Our purpose is to present a novel cost-effective therapeutic option for replacing lost mandibular condyle in developing countries. Condyle replacement remains challenging, particularly in reproducing an anatomical form that fits precisely within the glenoid cavity. When rehabilitating patients who have lost their condyle due to tumor resection, idiopathic condylar resorption or ankyloses of the temporomandibular joint, the main difficulty resides in finding a form that fits into the glenoid cavity. Our idea is to use this intact functional condyle preserved and resected from a benign jaw tumor as a scanned model to replace and serve as a template to replace lost mandibular condyles.
