What does the word "Poriferous" mean?
The word poriferous refers to something that is full of pores or has a porous structure. It’s often used in biological contexts to describe organisms like sponges, which have bodies full of tiny holes or pores. Poriferous’ implants present with a rigid open-pore structure that preserves the intricate features essential for natural tissue integration.
Are implants covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage for porous polyethylene implants used in craniomaxillofacial procedures can vary widely depending on several factors, including the specific insurance plan, the medical necessity of the procedure, and the policies of the insurance provider.
Generally, if the procedure is deemed medically necessary—such as for reconstructive surgery following trauma or congenital defects—insurance is more likely to cover it. However, for purely cosmetic procedures, coverage is less likely.
It’s best to check directly with your insurance provider to understand the specifics of your coverage. They can provide detailed information on what is included in your plan and any potential out-of-pocket costs.
Can patients undergo MRI with implant?
Yes. All Su-Por Implants are deemed MR Safe and pose no known hazard in the MRI environment.
How long do SU-POR implants last?
All SU-POR implants are considered permanent implants and do not degrade over time. The material is biologically inert and non-biodegradable, meaning it remains stable within the body. While the implants themselves can last a lifetime, they can removed if necessary.
