Abstract
Provided is a method of forming a customized alveolar bone tissue. The method includes obtaining first data having image information corresponding to an original alveolar bone of an alveolar bone defect, obtaining second data having image information on a defective portion of the alveolar bone defect, calculating third data having image information on a barrier membrane covering the alveolar bone defect by using the first data and the second data, and forming a barrier membrane artificial tissue corresponding to the barrier membrane by using the third data.
Claims4
A method of forming a customized alveolar artificial bone tissue for shielding an alveolar bone loss region, the method comprising:
- obtaining image data on the alveolar bone loss region through a computerized tomography (CT) scan;
- forming a mold of the alveolar bone loss region from the image data;
- removing a region corresponding to the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue from the mold;
- forming the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue on the mold from which the region corresponding to the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue is removed;
- and
- removing the mold from the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue, wherein the forming of the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue comprises:
- forming a cover portion in an empty region formed by the removing of the region corresponding to the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue from the mold;
- and
- forming an adhesion portion extending flat from an end of the cover portion,
- wherein the forming of the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue comprises depositing a material of the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue on the mold from which the region corresponding to the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue is removed,
- wherein a thickness of the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue becomes smaller from the adhesion portion toward the cover portion,
- wherein the adhesion portion comprises an adhesion surface configured to adhere to an alveolar bone in a region adjacent to the alveolar bone loss region by an adhesive,
- wherein the adhesion surface has a max thickness of the customized alveolar artificial bone tissue, and
- wherein the adhesion surface has an uneven portion or a receiving groove which is recessed from the adhesion surface and has a closed upper region such that the uneven portion or the receiving groove is filled with the adhesive.
