Comparison of Bite Force with Locking Plates versus Non-Locking Plates in the Treatment of Mandibular Fractures: A Meta-Analysis
Introduction Mandibular fractures represent a high percentage of all facial fractures, and the bite force is a fundamental parameter to measure the actual mandibular function and, subsequently, the masticatory efficiency and quality of life. Objectives The purpose of the present systematic review was to verify if there is any difference in the bite forces of patients with mandibular fractures...
متن کاملComparison of Mechanical Stability between Fibular Free Flap Reconstruction versus Locking Mandibular Reconstruction Plate Fixation
BACKGROUND The fibular free flap has been used as the standard methods of segmental mandibular reconstruction. The objective of mandibular reconstruction not only includes restored continuity of the mandible but also the recovery of optimal function. This paper emphasizes the advantage of the fibular free flap reconstruction over that of locking mandibular reconstruction plate fixation. METHO...
متن کاملAre locking plates better than non-locking plates for treating distal tibial fractures?
BACKGROUND Locking and non-locking plates has been used for distal tibia fracture osteosynthesis. Sufficient evidence to favor one implant over the other is lacking in the current literature. Our aim is to compare them in terms of fracture healing, alignment, functional outcome, complications. METHODS Sixty-eight patients operated on using a percutaneous plate were retrospectively reviewed. T...
متن کاملCustomized mandibular reconstruction plates improve mechanical performance in a mandibular reconstruction model
The purpose of this paper was to analyze the biomechanical performance of customized mandibular reconstruction plates with optimized strength. The best locations for increasing bar widths were determined with a sensitivity analysis. Standard and customized plates were mounted on mandible models and mechanically tested. Maximum stress in the plate could be reduced from 573 to 393 MPa (-31%) by i...
متن کاملUse of Locking Plates in Fracture Management
The history of fracture management can be traced back to the prehistoric times. It was not until the late nineteenth and early twentieth century that operative treatments of fractures were contemplated. However operative treatment of fractures at that time was associated with devastating results secondary to infection with high morbidity and mortality. As a result, the mainstay of treatment of ...
