An incredible replacement mandible

This titanium jawbone was created for an 83 year old woman two years ago. Able to integrate biologically with the patient, the jaw enabled the continued ability to chew, speak and live as normal where otherwise not possible.Taking MRI scans of the patient, modelling the implant from them, printing the jaw and surgery took just two days to complete. The very next day, routine jaw function was possible.
