Abstract
Introduction: Maxillofacial injuries, such as soft-tissue injuries, dental injuries, or maxillary, mandibular, and zygomatic fractures; are the most common injuries treated by oral and maxillofacial surgeons. In the last few years polyetheretherketone (PEEK) material was recognized as a material for maxillo-facial and cranial reconstructions.
Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of custom made polyetheretherketone (PEEK) plate in the treatment of mandibular fracture.
Materials and methods: 10 patients having non-comminuted recent mandibular fracture will be treated using custom made PEEK plates. Clinical follow up will be conducted after 24-hours, one week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months. Also, a radiographic investigation will be performed after 6 months to estimate the mean bone density across the fracture line.
Results: Data will be collected, summarized and statistically analyzed using the suitable methods.
CONCLUSIONS: Fixation of mandibular fracture with custom made PEEK plate provides satisfying clinical and radiographic results after 6 months follow up.
