  • THREE DIMENSIONAL Bone Plating System IN THE MANAGEMENT OF MANDIBULAR FRACTURES-A CLINICAL STUDY
    annals and essences of dentistry, 2012
    Co-Authors: Lakshmi Gandi, Vivekanand S Kattimani
    Abstract:

    Over the past many years, various Bone Plating Systems have been developed to provide stable fixation for the mandible fractures were proposed and performed. The aim of the study was to evaluate efficacy of three dimensional (3-D)titanium mini plates in the management of mandibular fractures, and to analyze structural stability of the fractured Bone fragments after fixation, to evaluate the biocompatibility of the three dimensional Plating System and the morbidity of three dimensional Plating System. Patients and Methods: 20 patients with mandibular fractures required open reduction internal fixation of the fractures using three dimensional mini plate osteosynthesis over a period of 2 yrs. prospectively. Conclusions: Three dimensional titanium miniplates provide good stabilization of fractured fragments in three dimensions due to closed quadrangular geometric shape and ease of contouring and adapting. Less surgical exposure of underlying fracture site is needed, with a minimal traction of the surrounding soft tissue. They are biocompatible and no morbidity seen in our study.

  • Bone Plating System
    2003
    Co-Authors: Paul C Weaver, Jeff W Mast, Keith A Mayo, Brett R Bolhofner, David Little
    Abstract:

    The present invention relates to a Bone Plating System and method for fracture fixation of Bone. The Bone Plating System includes a Bone plate, at least one locking screw, and at least one non-locking screw. The Bone plate has locking holes with threads and non-locking holes. The locking screws have a shaft with a thread for engaging Bone and a head with a thread configured and dimensioned to mate with the thread of the locking holes. The non-locking screws have a thread for engaging Bone and a non-threaded head. Both the locking and non-locking screws remain seated in their respective holes for substantially as long as the Bone plate is implanted. The non-locking screws compress the Bone plate against the Bone and hold fracture reduction while the locking screws are secured to the plate at a fixed angular relationship. The mixed fixation achieved by this Bone Plating System and method is particularly useful for treatment of per-articular fractures.
