[Use of ceramic endoprostheses in reconstructive surgery of the lower jaw in children].
The work analyses the possibility to use individually prepared ceramic endoprostheses in 6 children with a congenital or acquired pathology of the mandible. The operative methods with the application of ceramic endoprostheses are described which are characterized by less traumatic action and higher accuracy of correcting the defect or deformity of the mandible as compared with using biological plastic materials. This method of treatment can be recommended at the intermediate stages of the restorative reconstruction treatment of the mandible pathology in children.
