The Precise Pre-bent Plate offers a solution uniquely tailored to the South African market. The plate supplied is precisely contoured to the patients’ healthy anatomy, ensuring a precise fit for every patient.
The anatomical adaption of a titanium reconstruction plate is not without its challenges in the South African context.
Patients often present with extremely large pathology, leaving few reference points for accurate intra-operative plate contouring. Even with the best efforts of the surgeon, it may not always ensure good symmetrical results or plate positioning.
Precise uses CT scan data, virtual surgical planning, and 3D printing to help overcome these obstacles.
The Precise Pre-bent plate has rapidly become the standard of care in mandibular reconstruction.
