3DM created the joint with the help of oral surgeon Dr George Dimitroulis, using computed tomography scans and a test version of the patient’s skull.
“We are at the crossroads of an exciting era of customised medical devices that will become an integral part of healthcare in the 21st Century,” Dr Dimitroulis said.
Dr Nigel Finch, chairman of 3DM, said the successful outcome “not only achieves a fantastic result for the patient but it also serves to validate the end-to-end business model of 3DM in designing and developing custom implants”.
3DM expects to see an increase in these types of cases as clinicians use data-rich medical images in patient diagnosis to further utilise 3D-printing options.
