Intermaxillary fixation (IMF) remains an important component in the management of many facial fractures. During IMF, dental occlusion plays an important role as a guide and therapeutic tool. Since time immemorial there is a constant quest of oral and maxillofacial surgeons to find a quick way for IMF. The desire to develop an alternate interdental fixation technique, which not only would decrease the risk to the operator and gingival trauma but also accurately satisfy dental occlusion, lead to the development of this novel technique of "spiral IMF."
颌间固定（IMF）仍然是许多面部骨折治疗中的重要组成部分。在颌间固定期间，牙合关系作为一种引导和治疗工具发挥着重要作用。自古以来，口腔颌面外科医生一直不断寻求一种快速进行颌间固定的方法。开发一种替代的牙间固定技术的愿望，这种技术不仅能降低操作者的风险和牙龈创伤，还能准确实现牙合关系，从而促成了这种“螺旋式颌间固定”新技术的发展。
