Patient-Specific Implants & Reconstructive Technologies International Conference

21 November 2026 | Royal Society of Medicine, London

What is PSIRTI?

The Patient-Specific Implants & Reconstructive Technologies International (PSIRTI) conference brings together global leaders in craniofacial, maxillofacial, dental, prosthodontic, and biomedical innovation. Our aim is to create a collaborative platform for cutting-edge research, surgical practice, and digital design in the field of custom facial reconstruction.

Goals for 2026

Present the latest developments in PSI design, manufacture, and application
Showcase interdisciplinary case studies and workflows
Expand academic and commercial collaboration across specialties
Grow PSIRTI as a recognised academic movement.

History & Vision

Following the success of the inaugural meeting in Bruges (2025), PSIRTI 2026 marks the next step in growing a multidisciplinary community that bridges clinical excellence with digital innovation. Hosted in London at the prestigious Royal Society of Medicine, this second international meeting will reflect the evolving scope of patient-specific approaches.

Governance & Integrity

PSIRTI is coordinated in partnership with the not-for-profit organisation NPO PSIRTI, based in Belgium. The London 2026 event is delivered by PSIRTI Events Ltd, with the support of the Royal Society of Medicine. While strategic partnerships with industry exist, academic independence and scientific transparency remain paramount.
