Project Objective

The main objective of the project is to develop a novel technological path of individual design and production of personalised titanium implants for the reconstruction of the stomatognathic system after bone resections caused by craniofacial tumours. According to the concept assumptions, after the primary disease is cured, an innovative implant will allow for: increase in rehabilitation effectiveness (difficult or impossible to obtain with conventional methods), preserving the speech and masticatory functions as well as the facial aesthetics. Therefore, the project results will enable implementation of a new treatment method having a positive impact on the quality of life in patients with craniofacial tumours and decreasing the social costs of this disease entity.
