The present disclosure relates to an orthopedic implant, wherein the implant is a 3D printed part and comprises at least one first portion and at least one second portion, the first portion forming a support structure and the second portion being at least partially made of a biodegradable material.

The present disclosure further relates to a method of manufacturing an orthopedic implant.

An implant is produced by fabricating first and second layers. The first layer of repeated and truncated building units is fused together to define pores. The second layer of repeated and truncated building units are fused together to define pores and fused onto the first layer of truncated building units. The first and the second layers form at least part of a porous portion of the implant. The formed porous portion is attached onto a base portion of an implant. The truncated building units of each of the first and the second layers are in the form of spatially overlapping three-dimensional shapes.

A surgical sensor system for collecting internal patient data comprises a sensor module comprising a housing and a sensor disposed within the housing, and an attachment device comprising a socket for receiving the housing and an exterior anchor feature for attaching the attachment device to biological matter. A method of implanting a sensor module for use with an orthopedic implant device comprises making an insertion portal in anatomy of a patient, positioning a sensor module in the anatomy in a first position relative to the insertion portal, and positioning an orthopedic implant in the anatomy in a second position relative to the insertion portal such that the orthopedic implant is separate from the sensor module.

The present invention includes a method for generating a three-dimensional model of a bone and generating a cut plan for excavating a portion of the bone according to the cut plan to allow the insertion of a custom implant. In a particular arrangement, the method also includes excavating the bone with an autonomous extremity excavator utilizing the cut plan generated by a processor. In a further arrangement, the method includes generating a digital model of a custom implant and generating, using the digital model, a physical model sharing the same dimensions as the digital module using manufacturing device.

The invention relates to a bone implant (1) for correcting an incorrect position of a bone, the bone implant (1) having a first portion (2) for attachment to a first bone portion (3) and a second portion (4) for attachment to a second bone portion (5), the bone implant (1) being prepared so that, when fixed to the bone, it orients the first bone portion (3) and the second bone portion (5) with respect to one another and keeps said portions at a distance from one another, the bone implant (1) having such a geometry and being adapted so as to force a predetermined orientation of the second bone portion (5) relative to the first bone portion (3). The invention also relates to a method for producing such a bone implant (1).

The present invention relates to an animal femoral implant and, more specifically, to an animal femoral implant, which may enable artificial hip joint replacement for animals, may enable the implant to be firmly fixed to the animal femur by spontaneous bone growth of the animal, thereby preventing complications such as aseptic dissociation and bone resorption around the cement, which may occur when using bone cement, and may cause a porous part, which has relatively low strength due to a plurality of pores formed therein, to be protected by a frame part, which has relatively high strength due to a solid face formed therein, thereby preventing damage to the porous part in which the edge thereof is broken or bent by friction with the bone or by an external force in the process of inserting the femur implant into the animal femur and eliminating a problem in that porous particles that may be generated when the porous part is damaged penetrate into blood vessels and the like to cause various inflammatory reactions.

A system or method for bioprinting bone graft provides obtaining an image of the patient's oral facial area, and viewed with the image viewing software. A restoratively driven dental implant treatment plan is created to restore the patient's missing dentition. The restoratively driven treatment plan is created. A physical exam, review of a patient's desires and expectations, review of imaging, acquisition and review of patient photographs and intraoral digital impressions. The imaging and digital impressions are aligned, via software to create a virtual representation. The anticipated final implant retained dentures, unitary implant crowns, or implant bridges, are planned to provide optimal esthetic and functional results. Dental implants are then planned for prosthetic anchors. Bone deficiencies are evaluated and if areas of boney deficiency are present, a patient specific bone graft is designed to restore said deficient areas. Once designed, it may be printed via additive manufacturing.

A universal low-profile intercranial assembly includes a mounting plate and a low profile intercranial device composed of a static cranial implant and an interdigitating functional neurosurgical implant. The low profile intercranial device is shaped and dimensioned for mounted to the mounting plate.

A computer system and computerized method in which orthodontic treatment, including midcourse correction of one or more teeth in a dental arch fitted with a dental appliance, comprises a virtual simulation of a dental arch fitted with a virtual dental appliance in which each of the one or more teeth can be discretely moved from an initial position to a final position allowing modification of the fitted dental appliance by computerized selection of one or more brackets and production of a bonding tray adapted to hold the selected brackets in correspondence to determined bracket bonding locations in the virtual simulation of dental arch.

Disclosed is a method for forming an orthopaedic implant. The method comprises determining one or more parameters of a bone, of a subject, to which the implant is to be attached, and calculating specifications based on parameters. That calculation includes calculating a mechanical property relating to elasticity of the implant, a length of the implant, and positions of two or more fixation locations by which to fix the implant to the bone. The method further comprises forming the implant based on the specifications, wherein each fixation location comprises a longitudinal axis through the implant, and calculating specifications comprises calculating a trajectory for the longitudinal axis of the respective fixation location.
