چکیده
KATOU, F. and MoTEGI, K. Fixation of Mandibular Body Fracture with Combination of One-Piece Cast Splint and Miniplate Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 1995, 175 (2), 111-121 A method for fixation of mandibular body fracture within the dental arch using a combination of a rigid one-piece cast splint and a pliable miniplate screwed at the inferior border of the mandible was developed with the highest priority placed on restoration of occlusion. This paper presents the results obtained in 36 patients treated by this method. The postoperative occlusion was analyzed using the T-scan system in 20 fully dentate patients without major caries. The data obtained in the patients were well comparable to those in normal subjects. cast splint; osteosynthesis; miniplate; T-scan system
