PEEK skull repair
The skull is one of the hardest bones in the human body. It can withstand greater pressure, resist a lot of damage, and protect the brain tissue. Under normal circumstances, the skull will not be damaged. However, there are still many people in life who suffer from skull defects for various reasons, such as craniocerebral trauma caused by falling objects from high altitudes, fighting, etc., or having to remove part of the bone flap due to surgery.
PEEK skull repair material is a new type of implant-grade material. Its scientific name is polyetheretherketone. After 3D processing, it can achieve the effect of fitting and shaping, and fit the surrounding skull. In addition, it is resistant to high temperatures and has poor heat conduction. After the peek material skull repair is completed, there is no restriction on further examination. The image will be clearer during CT examination, and the degree of shaping fit can be seen
