3D printing to rebuild cancerous jaws

A surgical team at Swansea's Morriston Hospital has created a technique to reconstruct jaws affected by cancer using 3D printing, said to be one of the first of its kind in the world. The method uses 3D printed titanium implants that are anatomically specific to the patient.
