Abstract :
Background: Throughout history, humans have
grappled with painful injuries, prompting a relentless
quest for effective treatments. The origins of early
attempts at self-healing, such as the first instances of
adjusting fractures or dislocations, remain uncertain. It
is conceivable that in the early Stone Age, fractured
limbs were supported by splints crafted from wood or
bamboo, embedded in clay and allowed to harden.
In our modern age of increased motorization,
industrialization, and technological advancements, the
management of maxillofacial injuries has assumed a
significant role. The prevalence of road traffic accidents,
on the rise in today's world, has notably contributed to
the surge in maxillofacial injuries. The head, being the
most exposed part of the body, bears the brunt of
injuries, constituting the highest percentage among all
body regions. Other contributors to maxillofacial
injuries include interpersonal violence, falls, sporting
mishaps, and industrial trauma. Neglect or inadequate
treatment of fractures can lead to enduring
consequences, encompassing functional, aesthetic,
neurological, and psychological impairments.

Materials and methods: The research was conducted
with the approval of the institutional ethical committee,
spanning a two-year period during which a thorough
evaluation was performed on a cohort of 20 subjects.
Results: The utilization of 3D titanium locking plates
presents a viable alternative to conventional miniplates
due to their enhanced stability resulting from a
sophisticated screw locking mechanism, thereby
providing superior stability.
