EVALUATION OF BI-CORTICAL BONE SCREWS FOR MAXILLOMANDIBULAR FIXATION IN TREATMENT OF MANDIBULAR FRACTURES
AHMED MOSTAFA M. SALLOUM;
Abstract
The present study is a clinical evaluation of the bicmiical transalveolar screws as a method of maxillomandibular fixation MMF in closed reduction of mandibular fractures.
Ten cases of favourable mandibular fracture which necessisate closed reduction and•indirect skeletal fixation were inCluded in this study, all patients were free from any systemic diseases.
Evaluation of all patients was perfonned as follow:
- History, including present history of the trauma and past medical history.
Clinical examination includes both general and local examination. Radiographic examination
For all cases the transalveolar bone screws were inserted in the maxilla and the mandible to be linked together by a loop of O.S111111 stainless steel wire providing maxillo-mandibular tixation (MMF).
Patients were placed in MMF for 4-6 weeks follow up was done both clinically and radiographically to evaluate:
Early postoperative complications as pain, infection and efficiency of reduction, stability of the screws.
Late postoperative complications as insufficient immobilization, teeth injury, nerve injury, malocclusion.
