Comparison and evaluation of biomechanical stability of customized plate over monocortical screws, bicortical screws and 3d plate in mandibular fractures – An in-vitro study
Abstract:Objective: To compare and evaluate the biomechanical stability of a customized plate over miniplate with monocortical screws, miniplate with bicortical screws, and 3D plates across the simulated fractured fragments. Materials and Methods: This in-vitro study involves the use of 40 swine Hemi mandibles with 10 in each group. The specimens were divided into four groups. Group I: Fixation with four holed 2mm mini plates with gap and 4 monocortical screws 2x10 mm, Group II: Fixation with four holed 2mm mini plates… Show more
