“…The 3-D mini plates itself was a misnomer as the plates themselves were not 3 dimensional, but holds the fracture segments rigidly by resisting the 3 dimensional forces namely shearing, bending and torsional forces occurring on the fracture site in function 17 . The previous studies in the use of the 3-D titanium miniplate for mandibular fracture treatment, reported low complication rates and studies concluded that the 3-D mini plate is a predictable alternative to conventional mini-plates 5,14 .…”

“…When only one linear plate is placed at the superior border area, torsional and bending forces usually cause movement along the axis of the plate with bucco-lingual splaying and gap formation at the inferior border respectively. In 3-D titanium plate system the screws are placed in the box configuration on both sides of fracture rather than on a single line and broad platform is created that may increase the resistance to torsional forces along the axis of the plate 4,5 .…”

“…The intraoral attachment is considered complicated by a number of maxillofacial surgeons and plastic surgeons, depending on their level of experience. 2 As an alternative to these difficulties, the trocater is commonly applied in the posterior mandible. However, full access to the posterior site in the surgical field is substantially limited by the inherent nature of the masseteric fascia.…”

“…1 However, attaching the system of plates and screws in the posterior mandibular region is difficult because of the angle required for inserting the screws, especially when located in a more basal and retromolar region, requiring considerable experience. 2 Thus, for adequate attachment, the transcutaneous approach with trocater has been used in the attachment of sagittal ramus osteotomy in orthognathic surgery as well as in the attachment of mandibular angle fractures. 3,4 Nevertheless, the use of the trocater has been associated with an incidence of 18% of scars face due to the transcutaneous approach necessary for the use of this surgical instrument.…”
