    Author: Couvreur J, Wackens G.
    Journal: Acta Stomatol Belg; 1990 Dec; 87(4):272-82. PubMed ID: 2101198.
    Abstract:
    In this article the use of Titanium miniplates in the maxillo-facial surgery is being examined. After a literature-study concerning the qualities of Titanium and the advantages, disadvantages aswell as indications of the miniplates, the stability of osteotomies using this system is being traced, aswell as its eventual developments. From this research it becomes clear that the miniplates indeed contribute to greater stability of the skeletal fixation in maxillo-facial surgery.
