Abstract

Abstract: PURPOSE: To study the mechanical properties of titanium alloy craniomaxillofacial bone plate manufactured by two kinds of three-dimensional printing techniques and compare with conventional titanium plate. METHODS: Stereolithography data (STL) of conventional titanium plates were obtained and used to fabricate bone plate by selective laser melting (SLM) and electron beam melting (EBM). Static mechanical test and Rockwell hardness test of the conventional titanium plate, SLM titanium plate and EBM titanium plate were carried out. The SPSS13.0 software package was used to analyze the data. RESULTS: All the tests were successfully completed. Variance analysis showed that the yield load was SLM>EBM>conventional plate, and the maximum load was SLM>EBM>conventional plate, the difference was statistically significant. Rockwell hardness test results was SLM> conventional plate>EBM, multiple comparison showed that the difference of the two techniques and conventional plate was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: The preliminary results show that three-dimensional printing titanium alloy plate has nice biomechanical properties, and its mechanical strength and hardness meet the national and industrial standards.
