Opis

Rigid fixation is defined as a technique that does not allow micromotion of the fracture segments during normal function. Studies have demonstrated that absolute rigid fixation is not necessary for successful healing. In fact it has been shown that the additional plates necessary to establish absolute rigidity may actually increase the complication rate. Rigid internal fixation allows good anatomic reduction and the possibility of immediate function of the lower jaw, without the use of long lasting and uncomfortable intermaxillary fixation.
