Virtual Surgical Planning and Customized Subperiosteal Implant for Reconstruction of Maxillary Defect After Oncological Resection.

Reconstructing defects after jaw tumor removal is difficult because of the complex facial skeleton, which affects patient nutrition and self-confidence. Traditional methods like iliac bone or fibula grafts take a long time and may raise aesthetic issues. Advancements in computer-aided three-dimensional (3D) modeling allow precise surgical planning, leading to more symmetrical reconstructions.
