This study presents an innovative approach to the customized reconstruction of a lower jaw, with the primary objective of demonstrating an alternative process that integrates biocompatible materials, including PMMA, titanium, and stainless steel. The methodology includes the digital acquisition of the patient's morphological profile via computed tomography scans and introduces the use of generative design methods to optimize the implant's weight and rigidity. Using CAD/CAE tools, the missing bone segment was reconstructed, and fixation plates and screws for the surgical procedure were proposed. Additionally, the characteristics of the PVD coating on the plates were analyzed through a numerical study employing the finite element method.

摘要

This study presents an innovative approach to the customized reconstruction of a lower jaw, with the primary objective of demonstrating an alternative process that integrates biocompatible materials, including PMMA, titanium, and stainless steel. The methodology includes the digital acquisition of the patient's morphological profile via computed tomography scans and introduces the use of generative design methods to optimize the implant's weight and rigidity. Using CAD/CAE tools, the missing bone segment was reconstructed, and fixation plates and screws for the surgical procedure were proposed. Additionally, the characteristics of the PVD coating on the plates were analyzed through a numerical study employing the finite element method.
