The use of reconstruction plates for functional restoration of Mandibular Osseous Defects
CA. Swaify, MBCh, BDS, BDS, PhD,
In this report, five cases had been treated for mandibular defects (partial). Three patients were treated after tumor resection while two cases were post traumatic. Reconstruction (stainless steel) plates were used either with or without autogenous bone graft. All patients were followed for at least one year. The result showed that this type of plate fulfilled most of the requirements for mandibular reconstruction. In addition, these plates are easy to remove after healing is completed.
