3D MESH polyethylene

3D MESH polyethylene

  • A titanium mesh-polyethylene hybrid (often used in craniofacial and orbital reconstruction) combines the structural rigidity of titanium with the malleability and tissue-friendly properties of porous polyethylene.
  • Together, these materials provide optimal strength, excellent contour retention, and promote healthy tissue integration.

A titanium mesh polyethylene composite (often referred to as a hybrid implant) is a medical device used in craniomaxillofacial and orbital surgeries. It embeds a flexible titanium mesh within porous or high-density polyethylene.
This creates an implant that is rigid yet easily contoured, promoting tissue growth while remaining visible on medical imaging.

A titanium mesh coated with, or combined with, porous polyethylene (like MEDPOR) functions as a structural implant used in reconstructive surgery to repair craniofacial, skull base, and orbital floor defects.
It combines the rigid, customizable strength of metal with the tissue-friendly, space-filling properties of plastic.
