Particle3D
3D-printed bones for to counter one-fit-all implants
Bone tissue reconstruction is a surgery performed millions of times each year, from congenital bone defects to victims of accidents and sufferers of diseases like cancer. Today, these patients receive harvested bone or live with titanium in their body for the rest of their lives. Particle3D has developed a technology to reconstruct the patient’s exact anatomy with 3D printed patient-fitted implants with bone-like porosity. The implants are made from natural biomaterials which degrade over time and remodel into real living bone tissue. Our implants can be designed to deliver additives, including growth factors, antibiotics and chemotherapy, which can be released over a controlled period of time. This usage will have wide ranging benefits for patients and health care providers.
