CMF White Papers
The AO Technical Commission’s expert CMF surgeons have recently published practical guidelines on the use of patient-specific implants in CMF procedures including reconstruction of the cranium, midface and mandible; orthognathic surgery; and reconstructive orbital surgery.
As well as recommendations for optimizing outcomes, the white papers include an evaluation of the advantages and limitations of CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and manufacture) in cranio-maxillofacial surgery and technological workflow considerations.
