 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 11 Rapid Prototyping mandibular reconstruction using personalized Study: Bin Shi, Lin Li Song, Qiu Yu, Zhu Xiaofeng, Lin Geng ice, Huang Li [Abstract] Objective To investigate the rapid prototyping of mandibular reconstruction using individual characteristics and clinical results. Methods due to tumor or trauma result in mandibular defects in 23 patients, preoperative three-dimensional spiral CT scan, making physical through rapid prototyping technology model and image model, based on model design and pre-curved osteotomy line reconstruction plate, according to the design to remove the tumor, the pre-bending plate in place, take the iliac bone or fibula flap and fixed by plate appearance in the plate on the plastic reconstruction of the mandible. the result of tumor recurrence, graft survival, facial symmetry, mouth opening 2.8 ~ 3.6 cm, mandibular function was normal, good relationship between occlusion, temporomandibular joint no snapping, no tenderness. three-dimensional CT 3 months after review the reconstruction of mandibular symmetry with the contralateral, normal condyle position. Conclusion rapid prototyping technology under the guidance of individual mandible reconstruction method is simple, low cost, short production time model, clinical results were satisfactory, is an ideal reconstruction of the mandible methods. [Keywords:] bone graft mandibular fibula autologous iliac computer-aided design Mandible of human facial morphology under determine 1 / 3 of the facial features, such as tumors and traumatic causes of mandibular defects seriously affect the appearance and oral function. A variety of free or vascularized bone graft has been widely applied with reconstruction plate in mandibular reconstruction. clinical patients who usually form as a reference to the healthy side, in the surgery of the mandible from personal experience, shaping the immediate, likely to cause surface asymmetry and condylar displacement, affecti
