Summary

This study tested a special 3D titanium plate designed to fix fractures of the lower jaw near the joint. Fourteen adults with a single-side jaw fracture received the plate during surgery. Researchers used CT scans and clinical exams to check bone alignment and jaw function over three months. The goal was to see if this plate provides stable fixation and good recovery.
