Abstract:
A fracture of the maxillary or mandibular bone requires the afflicted to undergo a maxillo mandibular fixation for the establishment of pre traumatic occlusion. This process is quiet tedious and consumes a considerable period of time before any surgical procedure can commence. Such a situation can be complicated in case the individual with maxillomandibular fracture has sparse or absent dentition; for such cases a splint is fabricated or an erstwhile existing denture is used for maintaining a vertical jaw proportion. Stabilizing such splints to the jaw requires various invasive approaches that can bring into harm\'s way, adjacent soft tissue vital structures. We describe here an innovative technique combining the time tested method of the \"gunning splint\" and the advanced minimally invasive MMF screws for obtaining closed reduction in edentulous jaw fractures.
摘要:
上颌骨或下颌骨骨折需要患者进行上颌骨下颌骨固定以建立创伤前咬合。该过程是安静乏味的,并且在任何外科手术可以开始之前消耗相当长的时间。如果上颌下颌骨折患者的牙列稀疏或缺失,这种情况可能会很复杂;在这种情况下,制造夹板或使用现有的假牙来保持垂直的颌骨比例。稳定这种夹板到下颌需要各种侵入性的方法,可以带来伤害的方式,邻近的软组织重要结构。我们在这里描述了一种创新技术,该技术结合了经过时间考验的“枪夹板”方法和先进的微创MMF螺钉,可在无牙颌骨骨折中获得闭合复位。
