TITANIUM 3D-MILLED PLATE FOR MANDIBLE 

TITANIUM 3D-MILLED PLATE FOR MANDIBLE 

The design of the TRUMATCH® CMF Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible (PSMP) is individually engineered to meet the needs of each patient and surgeon. By selecting plate design features, surgeons can customize the reconstruction plate to create a patient-specific solution.

The Titanium 3D-Milled Plates for Mandible are 3D-milled to the planned patient anatomy, eliminating the time needed for intraoperative adaption and creating a stronger plate* with a lower overall profile.

The plates are never bent, consequently there is no induced stress due to bending.
 

Features and Benefits

Derived from Patient CT Data 

  • Design fits the planned outcome for easy positioning of the grafts at the planned location 

  • Integration with virtual surgical planning service** for seamless transfer of the surgical plan into the OR, using patient-specific surgical guides** with built-in drill guides that align with the plate holes (optional)

Customizable Design Features 

  • Screw hole positions and angulations defined individually to avoid screw interference with nerves, tooth roots, osteotomies, existing or future implants 

  • Screw length prediction and pre-visualization of screw trajectories to ensure a collision-free construct 

  • Compatible with MatrixMANDIBLETM Condylar Head Add-on

Strength with Low Profile 

  • 2.0 mm and 2.5 mm plate thickness for improved fatigue strength* with lower profiles compared to standard reconstruction plates

WORKFLOW 

Start by visiting PROPLAN CMFTM Online and request a new account via the web interface 

  • Alternatively, ask your sales consultant for support 

  • Create a new case, upload the patient CT Scan and fill in the preferences for the planning, guides, splints, models and implants 

  • Join the interactive virtual surgical planning session with an experienced clinical engineer 

  • Validate your virtual surgical plan, then the patient-specific tools and finally the personalized implants 

  • The guides, models and implants are manufactured and delivered to you 

  • You can now transfer the virtual plan to the patient, as you imagined it

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 

How can I get a Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible? 
A Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible can be defined based on a PROPLAN CMF Case. Depending on the need, the plate be designed based on a virtual surgical plan performed with the surgeon or it can be designed based on a mandible reconstructed using mirroring technology. 
 
How do I get started? 
Use PROPLAN CMF Online or a Request for Service - Mandible and midface reconstruction to initiate a case in combination with a PROPLAN CMF planning. Use the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible Request for Service form if you want to use a Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible based on a virtual plan performed with another planning software than PROPLAN CMF Software. 
 
What else do I need in order to perform a case with Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible? 
In order to perform a surgery with Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible, you will need at least the following: 
- MatrixMANDIBLE Transbuccal set 
- MatrixMANDIBLE Recon Screws module or MatrixMANDIBLE Compact Recon module 
- At least one screwdriver handle with hex coupling 
 
Is there anything else needed for the surgery with Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible? 
An alternative plan has to be considered for the eventuality that a deviation from the plan takes place (e.g., more extensive resection than planned, insufficient stretching allowance of the soft tissue, etc.). The alternative plan can be any other reconstruction set (MatrixMANDIBLE, 2.4 UniLOCK, 2.0 LOCK or a non-DePuy Synthes system) that covers the indication associated with the planned surgery. 
 
What does the price of the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible cover? 
The price of the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible (e.g., article SD480.xxx) covers the design and the manufacturing of the plate. The virtual plan, surgical guides, anatomical models and screws are charged separately. 
 
Can the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible be used with the Condylar Head Add-on? 
Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible can be used with Condylar Head Add-on. Please contact the TRUMATCH CMF team should such cases arise. The development time might be longer than for a plate without. 
 
Is the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible compatible with the 2.4 UniLOCK system? 
The Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible is exclusively designed to work with MatrixMANDIBLE implants and instruments. There is no plan to make the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible available for other systems. 
 
Is the plate bundled with the screws that were suggested during the plate design? 
No. The screws need to be ordered separately (e.g. sterile or non-sterile) or taken from the set during the surgery. 
 
Do I need to order an anatomical model for the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible? 
Anatomical models are optional when the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible are used. The anatomical model is needed mainly to bend a plate, and this step is not required for a Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible . 
 
Can the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible be used for maxillary reconstruction? 
No, Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible can only be used for mandibular indications. Ti 3D printed plates and implants are available for this indication. Please refer to the Titanium 3D Printed section of this website. 
 
Can the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible be bent? 
No, Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible should not be bent. By bending the plate, its mechanical integrity can be negatively affected. 
 
Can the Titanium 3D-Milled Plate for Mandible be cut? 
Yes, it can be cut using the Bolt Cutter 388.720, and the deburring feature of the MatrixMANDIBLE ShortCut. The ShortCut instruments should not be used to cut the plate.
