Biomechanics of internal fixation of craniofacial region

The management of facial injuries has evolved significantly during the past two decades. Bone repair techniques have evolved as well, from the frequent use of interosseous wire repairs, Adams suspension wiring to the common use of rigid fixation with plates and screws. Many early mandibular fixations used large plates with large-diameter screws, and these repairs have progressed more recently to the frequent use of smaller "miniplating" techniques as advocated by Michelet and colleagues, Champy and associates, and more recently by Ellis. Porous polyethylene implants so far seem to be well tolerated in the orbit, and along with hydroxyapatite cements, such implants have provided a wider variety of options for craniofacial reconstruction. Ongoing researches in the field of bone glue can be the future of the internal fixation. The aim of this book is to compile the existing literature on the internal fixation of the maxillofacial region and the biomechanics of the same.
