ABSTRACT

Maxillofacial surgery requires precise repair and treatment of complex anatomical structures. Accord ingly, computeraided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems provide significant advantages in designing patientspecific implants, producing surgical guides and optimizing preoperative planning processes. In particular, 3D printing technology offers a revolutionary innovation in the production of personalized implants and surgical guides. In maxillofacial surgery, biocompatible materials such as titanium, PEEK (polyetheretherketone), bioceramics and biological graft materials are frequently preferred for their tissue compatibility, mechanical durability and aesthetic advantages. CAD/CAM systems have advantages such as surgical precision, shorter operative times and patient satisfaction. However, there are challenges such as limitations of the technology and high cost. CAD/CAM systems are expected to develop further in the future. The potential offered by nextgeneration technologies in the field of maxillofacial surgery is demonstrated, and it is expected that these innovations will be increasingly used in clinical practice.
