  • Title: Stabilisation of the delayed zygomatic arch fracture.
    Author: Güven O.
    Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1987 Aug; 16(4):445-7. PubMed ID: 3117917.
    Abstract:
    Most fractures of the zygomatic arch do not require active fixation after reduction. After the replacement of the fragments in the week following injury, fragments are held in correct position. Although fragments can be reduced after the first week, stabilisation cannot be provided properly. After several months, replacement of the fracture will be almost impossible. This report presents a technique by using an extraoral acrylic appliance in the delayed zygomatic arch fracture.
