Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate polyetheretherketone (PEEK) as a patient-
specific implant (PSI) material in maxillofacial reconstructive surgery. Materials and methods …

Background Craniofacial defects tend to carry functional and esthetic consequences for the
patient. The complex shapes in this region make such reconstructions a challenging …

Background: Large cranial defects represent reconstructive challenges.
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) implants are preoperatively tailored to the exact size of the …

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the surgical outcomes using
polyetheretherketone (PEEK) patient-specific prostheses produced by computer-aided …

Background This study aims to prospect the soft and hard tissue changes after augmentation
of two different local mandibular contour defects using polyetheretherketone (PEEK) patient …

Reconstruction of bony craniofacial defects requires precise understanding of the anatomic
relationships. The ideal reconstructive technique should be fast as well as economical, with …

Extensive maxillofacial defects resulting from trauma or oncologic resection present
reconstructive challenges. Various autografts and alloplastic materials in conjunction with …

Background Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a synthetic material that was used initially in
spine and hip surgery. It has the properties of being biocompatible, resistant to thermal and …

Purpose In the present study, we report an innovative workflow using polyetheretherketone
(PEEK) patient-specific implants for esthetic corrections in the facial region through onlay …

The reconstruction of craniomaxillofacial deformities, especially zygomatic bone repair, can
be exigent due to the complex anatomical structure and the sensitivity of the crucial organs …
