Distraction Osteogenesis

Distraction osteogenesis, also known as Osteodistraction, is a procedure maxillofacial surgeons use to extend and correct craniofacial deformities in their patients. These devices should make movements precise, hygienic and easy for the patient to perform.

What Type of Distraction Osteogenesis Devices Are Available for My Practice?

There are both external and intraoral distraction osteogenesis products on the market today. External options are used on the outside of the face to correct deformities such as Midface Skeletal Hypoplasia and Hemifacial Microsomia. Internal products, on the other hand, are used inside the mouth for procedures that include vertical distraction of alveolar bone and soft tissue as well as Maxillary Hypoplasia.
