Craniofacial osseointegration [PDF]
Oral Diseases, 2007 In year 2007, 30 years have elapsed since the first patient was supplied with a craniofacial osseointegrated implant. The reason for implanting in this patient was a severe conductive hearing loss, which necessitated the use of a bone conduction hearing aid. By utilizing the possibility to transmit sound to the cochlea via direct bone conduction, a new
