Abstract |
Comminuted mandibular fracture poses a surgical challenge. Extensive comminution and absence of reference adds complexity particularly in anterior region. In this technical note, we describe a novel application of virtual surgical planning combined with 3D printing which grants precise anatomic reduction in such cases. Computed Tomography data (mandible) of another patient of same age and sex was utilized to create reference model by virtual surgical planning. Virtually created model was 3D printed and utilized for precontouring the reconstruction plate which assisted in achieving satisfactory outcome.
