The challenges associated with fused deposition modelling of high-density polyethylene for facial augmentation implants: a review
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) implants are widely employed in craniomaxillofacial augmentation surgery because of their unique ability to bond with tissues for bone repair and functional recovery of the facial areas which are affected by acquired or congenital facial deformities. The direct manuf...
