What drives us

Variability to precision

When planning and execution work as one, surgeons can move from variability to greater precision. With 3D planning integrated with final fixation, you can choose a standard, personalized, or combined approach within a single workflow — helping reduce surprises in the OR and keeping the focus on the patient.

Quality you can count on

With almost 30 years of experience, over 1.5 million standard implants placed, and more than 50,000 patients treated with personalized solutions, our quality in CMF is backed by proven results, peer-reviewed evidence, and reliable workflows from scan to tray.

Raising the standard together

Better outcomes are shaped by shared experience. Through peer-driven, case-based learning, hands-on labs, and direct exchange around new solutions, surgeons and teams can build skills, apply practical insights, and help shape the future of CMF.

Today, what is most effective in CMF surgery is virtual surgical planning combined with custom‑made prostheses. This is the top of the present time in CMF.

The major innovation in cranio-maxillofacial surgery over the last fifteen years has really been the application of 3D — not as a concept, but in everyday practice, and the move toward truly custom, patient-specific surgery.

We gain more and more time in planning. The first proposal is often the right one.

Prof. Hervé BénateauHead of CMF, Caen University Hospital, France 

Treating our patients is no longer just on the OR table. It's also in front of the computer when we plan.

Prof. Max HeilandCharité Berlin, Germany

It is about admitting that we didn’t do it well enough before. What matters is the will to improve, for better patient care.
