The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of three dimensional titanium miniplates as treatment modality for the stabilization of the fractured or osteotomized bone fragments in maxillofacial region.
24 patients with maxillofacial trauma and one patient who underwent orthognathic surgery constituted the sample of the study. All the patients with maxillofacial injuries required open reduction internal fixation of the fractures and the orthognathic surgery patient required stabilization of the osteotomized segments.
Three dimensional plates provide good stability of bone fragments due to closed quadrangular geometric shape, and the ease of contouring and adapting. Because of better inter fragmentary stability; supplemental fixation is not necessary, thereby enhancing the overall comfort, convenience and well being of the patient.
本研究旨在评估三维钛微型钢板作为一种治疗方式,用于稳定颌面部骨折或截骨后的骨碎片的疗效。
24例颌面部创伤患者和1例接受正颌外科手术的患者构成了本研究的样本。所有颌面部损伤患者均需要进行骨折切开复位内固定,而正颌外科手术患者则需要稳定截骨段。
三维钢板由于其封闭的四边形几何形状、易于塑形和适配,能为骨碎片提供良好的稳定性。由于骨折块间稳定性更好,无需额外固定,从而提高了患者的整体舒适度、便利性和健康状况。
