The invention relates to a maxilla repositioning implant (1) for three-dimensional precise alignment of a maxilla displacing portion (5) relative to a remaining maxilla portion (3) that is fixed to the skull, wherein the maxilla repositioning implant (1) comprises a base (2), which has at least one plate (7) in which screw holes (10) are provided, wherein a portion of the material of the plate (7) defines, as a rim (11), a respective screw hole (10) that is provided for receiving a bone screw (17) in order to ensure fastening, via the bone screw (17) to be inserted into the respective screw hole (10), to the remaining maxilla portion (3) that is fixed to the skull, wherein the maxilla repositioning implant (1) also comprises a connection portion (4), which is spaced apart from the base (2) by connecting bridges (6), wherein the connection portion (4) comprises at least one plate (7) in which screw holes (10) are provided, and wherein a portion of the material of this plate (7) defines, as a rim (11), a respective screw hole (10) in order to ensure fastening, via a bone screw (17) to be inserted into the respective screw hole (10), to the maxilla displacing portion (5), wherein two connecting bridges (6) extend from the plate (7) of the connection portion (4) to the edge (11) of a screw hole (10) in the plate (7) of the base (2).
A maxilla repositioning implant for three-dimensional precise orienting of a maxilla displacing portion relative to a remaining maxilla portion fixed to the skull, wherein the maxilla repositioning implant has a base which has at least one plate in which screw holes are provided, wherein a portion of the material of the plate as a rim defines a respective screw hole which is provided for receiving a bone screw in order to ensure fastening to the remaining maxilla portion fixed to the skull via the bone screw to be inserted into the respective screw hole, wherein the maxilla repositioning implant furthermore has a connection portion which is spaced from the base via connecting bridges, wherein the connection portion has at least one plate in which screw holes are present and wherein a portion of the material of this plate as a rim defines a respective screw hole in order to ensure fastening to the maxilla displacing portion via a bone screw to be inserted into the respective screw hole, wherein two connecting bridges extend from the plate of the connection portion towards the rim of a screw hole in the plate of the base.
