The study aimed to introduce a new customized total mandibular prosthesis with 3D printing fabrication. The need for whole mandibular bone reconstruction and replacement is fortunately rare, but it is an extremely challenging topic in maxillofacial surgery, due to its functional implications. CAD-CAM techniques development has opened new broad horizons in the surgical planning of complex maxillofacial reconstructions, in terms of accuracy, predictability, and functional cosmetic results. The review of the literature has revealed a small number of scientific reports on total mandibulectomy including the condyles, with only eleven cases from 1980.
Richieri-Costa-Pereira syndrome (RCPS) is a rare genetic
disease with an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern characterized by
craniofacial alterations such as microsomia, Pierre-Robin sequence and
mandibular cleft. Only three cases of total mandibular rehabilitation with a
customized prosthesis have been published, and none have described a patient
born with a mandibular cleft. With the aid of computer-aided
design/computer-aided manufacturing technology, virtual surgical planning, and
customized manufacturing of surgical materials, the rehabilitation of this case
became attainable. Despite achieving intriguing results, making definitive
treatment recommendations for this type of case remains challenging. Additional
clinical data should be added to this topic in future studies.
