Polymer-based biomaterials are a material of choice for many surgeons due to their availability and durability. Many types are available on the market, but the search for improved properties and to cater to technology demands, such as 3D Printing, continues. Polyamide, used as an alternative in craniofacial reconstruction, has become a subject of interest recently. This chapter explores the physical and mechanical properties of polyamide composites fabricated via injection moulding and 3D printing techniques, along with their biocompatibility. With promising physical, mechanical, and biocompatibility properties, polyamide composites are expected to emerge as an alternative biomaterial for craniofacial reconstruction soon.
