Biomechanical Analyses of Porous Designs of 3D-Printed Titanium Implant for Mandibular Segmental Osteotomy Defects

Biomechanical Analyses of Porous Designs of 3D-Printed Titanium Implant for Mandibular Segmental Osteotomy Defects

Clinically, a reconstruction plate can be used for the facial repair of patients with mandibular segmental defects, but it cannot restore their chewing function. The main purpose of this research is to design a new three-dimensionally (3D) printed porous titanium mandibular implant with both facial...
