Three-Dimension Grid Plate Effecting in Mandibular Fracture Fixation

Abstract

Introduction: The mandibular angle fractures in the region of the body represent the highest incidence of fractures in mandibles and therefore deserve special attention and care. The use of three-dimensional plates has shown good results in this type of treatment and use has increased every day. Case Report: The authors describe two cases of mandibular fractures treated with grid miniplate. In case 1, was carried out extra-oral access for fracture reduction in angle. In case 2 was also carried out extra-oral access for fracture reduction in mandibular body. The monitoring showed the surgical success and the absence of postoperative complications. The grid miniplate has shown a great treatment option in cases of fractures of the mandibular body and angle for ease of use and lower rates of postoperative complications. Conclusion: The use of a three-dimensional grid plate has proven to be a viable alternative for the osteosynthesis of mandibular fractures. The results have significant clinical implications and encourage its use.
