MINIPLATES FOR MANDIBULAR AND MAXILLARY FRACTURE REPAIR

摘要

The objective of treatment presented for uncomplicated mandibular and maxillary fracture repair is to provide early rigid skeletal fixation with simultaneous restoration of dental occlusion, thus achieving an immediate return to full function. Techniques and devices most often described for this purpose include: intraosseous wire, used alone or in combination with other skeletal fixation devices, and bone plates and screws.
