The stress distribution on the fixation units after sagittal split ramus osteotomy and its relation with mandibular height and length is considered to be an important factor regarding post-operative outcomes. To assess this relation, finite element models of mandibles w...

Mandibular fractures are the second most common fractures of the maxillofacial skeleton. Approximately, more than half of the mandibular fractures occur in the teeth-bearing region. Consequently, every fracture in the dentate areas has the potential to involve teeth in ...
