[The value of 3-dimensional plates in maxillofacial surgery].
Plate osteosynthesis for bone fragment stabilisation in maxillo-facial surgery is a universal method whose advantages and drawbacks are now well documented. A new system of plates made out of titanium (3-D plates) is presented. The geometry of the plate assures a good stability in the three dimensions of the space. Easy use, good resistance against torque forces, compact form of the plate are some of the advantages. Various clinical cases are presented.
