Prosthetics
Facial Prosthetics
Maxillofacial Prosthetics is a highly specialised aspect of prosthetic rehabilitation. It is the prosthetic rehabilitation of the head and neck areas where they are either defective or completely missing due to injury, surgery, growth defects, disease or congenital malformation.
Body Prosthetics
Body Prosthetics involves the prosthetic rehabilitation of the arm, leg and torso areas where they are either defective or completely missing due to injury, surgery, growth defects, disease or congenital malformation.
These prostheses help to provide a greater body image and thus increase confidence.
Oral Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is the surgical specialty that includes the diagnosis and treatment of a wide spectrum of diseases, injuries, defects and aesthetic aspects of the mouth, teeth, jaws, face, head and neck. It is an internationally recognized surgical specialty.
Keloid Management
It is well known that the risk of keloid rebound following scar revision is very high. The patient not only has to endure the physical problems of painful and sensitive scars, but also the significant psychological impact, especially if the scar is located in a prominent area such as the ears.
Medical/Teaching Models
Medical models can be used for demonstrations, teaching and even practical training. CM Prosthetics produce realistic and accurate models for all of these uses. If you require any custom made medical models, please feel free to contact us for more infomation or for a quote.
Prosthetic Rehabilitation
Medical prostheses artificially restore patients who have facial or body defects due to malignancy, congenital deformity, or trauma. They offer hope to patients who cannot be surgically reconstructed and are used as a temporary measure for patients who are awaiting surgical reconstruction.
In order for the prosthesis to appear life like, every texture, form and pigmentation must be carefully matched. This requires several clinic visits as well as extensive laboratory work.
