The invention relates to a device for bone formation, bone reshaping or healing of bone in dental, oral and maxillofacial applications, specifically in connection with installation of dental implants. The device comprises a sheet structure made of an inert material, wherein the sheet structure has an inner surface intended to be directed towards the bone and an outer surface intended to be directed away from the bone. The geometrical features of the cavity formed between the inner surface of the device and the initial bone surface when the device is installed at the intended location is further used to improve and plan the treatment. The device is customized by means of digital planning based on the initial and the optimal bone volume for the intended treatment. Modifications of the device can be introduced to facilitate a combined installation of dental implants with the device.
A customised device for installation between soft tissue and an initial bone structure to contribute to enhanced bone formation, reshaping of bone, or healing of bone, the device being made of an inert inorganic material without osseoconductive properties, and having an inner surface arranged to be directed towards the initial bone structure when the device has been installed, the inner surface being shaped to define an outer shape of new bone, and an outer surface arranged to be directed towards the soft tissue when the device has been installed.
