Creating the perfect fit with our
state-of-the-art Patient Specific Implants.
At Attenborough Medical, our designers design and manufacture patient specific implants which are individually and specially designed using biocompatible materials that have a clinic history of use.
How are our patient specific implants manufactured?
Implants should be made to fit the patient, rather than the patient fitting a pre-made implant. Patient-Specific Implants are manufactured for each patient with regard to their anatomy, pathology and requirements of the surgeon for the design, fixation solutions and materials used. They are designed and created based on a personalised maxillofacial anatomical model that is recreated from computer tomography scan images.

Benefits of PEEK material
Bio-compatible and non-toxic to the body.
PEEK is incredibly stable and durable, it's a popular choice for patient specific implants because it is a proven bio-compatible, meaning that it's 100% non-toxic to the body.
Can be easily re-constructed and modified during surgery.
It's a material which can be constructed into any shape and design, due to its robust character it can not only withstand the manufacturing process but also last longer.
Resists Moist Environments
This material doesn't break down due to moisture which is highly imperative when inside the body which is full of watery tissue and fluids.
Benefits of Titanium material
Non-allergenic and Bio-compatible
Titanium is an excellent material for patient specific implants due to its bio-compatible and non-allergenic qualities, meaning that the body will not reject and attack the foreign body.
Osseo-integration
Over time, the titanium implant can become one with the human bone over time.
Benefits of Titanium Mesh material
Bio-compatible
Titanium Mesh is an excellent material for patient specific implants due to its bio-compatible and non-allergenic qualities, meaning that the body will not reject and attack the foreign body.
Osseo-integration
Over time, the titanium implant can become one with the human bone over time.
