Custom-made cranial bone prostheses are implantable devices tailored to replace or repair defects in the skull or jawbone. They are designed using precise measurements from a patient’s CT scans to restore structural integrity after trauma, surgery (such as tumor removal), congenital conditions, or disease, or to improve appearance.
These devices are typically regulated as medical implants, often requiring custom manufacturing approvals based on patient-specific designs. They are supplied directly to healthcare providers or hospitals, with materials like titanium, PEEK, or UHMWPE commonly used to ensure biocompatibility and durability.
