Tridimensional Plates in Mandibular Symphysis Fracture
Main Article Content
Abstract
Trauma and fractures in mandibular symphysis are prevalent in our population. Surgical options used in this treatment are related to differences in osteosynthesis systems, anatomical implications, risk and cost; tridimensional plates (3D) as unique system, show a validated condition for application. this revision make an analysis of the recent studies and the application of the 3D plate in symphysis fracture.
