How Much Forward Projection Can Be Added To A Custom Midface Implant in the Paranasal Area?
Q: Dr. Eppley, I’m considering getting a midface implant like this one on your website, and I was wondering what is the maximum amount of forward project you do in these cases, particularly in the paranasal region lateral to the nasal cavity since I feel that’s where my bone is most deficient.
A:I have seen patients put as 9 mm i the paranasal region but this would be an exceptional amount in the rarest of circumstances. Much more commonly patients have 4 to 6 mm of projection in the nasal base area.
