Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate 1.5mm 0.4mm

Key Features and Benefits of the Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate 1.5mm 0.4mm

The Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate is designed to precisely restore orbital floor integrity. Its 1.5mm thickness and 0.4mm profile offer optimal strength while minimizing invasiveness. Crafted from biocompatible titanium, the plate ensures excellent integration with surrounding tissues. This innovative implant provides superior support and stability, contributing to improved visual function and facial aesthetics. The plate’s anatomical design facilitates accurate placement and minimizes surgical time, leading to enhanced patient outcomes.

Indications for Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate 1.5mm 0.4mm

The Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate is indicated for the reconstruction and stabilization of orbital floor fractures. It is specifically designed to address complex orbital floor defects and restore proper orbital anatomy. Key indications include:

• Orbital floor fractures: The plate is used to repair and reconstruct the damaged orbital floor, preventing enophthalmos and diplopia.
• Blow-out fractures: It is applicable in cases where orbital floor bone fragments have displaced into the maxillary sinus.
• Orbital floor defects: The plate can be used to reconstruct missing bone segments and restore orbital volume.
• Combined facial fractures: The plate is suitable for complex facial trauma involving orbital floor fractures in conjunction with other facial bone injuries.
• Secondary orbital floor reconstruction: The plate can be used for revision surgeries to address failed or inadequate initial repairs.

How an Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate Works

The Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate is designed to restore the structural integrity of the orbital floor following trauma or surgery. The plate is carefully contoured to match the natural anatomy of the orbital region, providing a stable foundation for tissue regeneration. Its precise fit and minimal thickness allow for secure fixation while minimizing invasiveness. The plate is typically secured in place using titanium screws, creating a robust and durable repair. By restoring the orbital floor’s structural support, the plate helps to prevent enophthalmos (sunken eye) and diplopia (double vision), improving overall facial aesthetics and function.

FAQ

Q1: What is an Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate?

An Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate is a medical implant specifically designed to repair and reconstruct the orbital floor, the bony structure supporting the eye.

Q2: What are the dimensions of a typical Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate?

The dimensions can vary, but a common size is 1.5mm in thickness and 0.4mm in profile, offering a balance between strength and minimal invasiveness.

Q3: What material is used for Anatomical Orbital Floor Plates?

Typically, Anatomical Orbital Floor Plates are made from titanium due to its biocompatibility, strength, and resistance to corrosion.

Q4: How is the plate secured in place?

The plate is usually secured using titanium screws that are specifically designed for this purpose. These screws are inserted into pre-drilled holes in the surrounding bone.

Q5: What are the benefits of using an Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate?

Benefits include improved orbital support, reduced risk of enophthalmos (sunken eye), enhanced visual function, and faster recovery due to minimal invasiveness.

Q6: Can the plate be customized?

Some manufacturers offer customizable options for Anatomical Orbital Floor Plates to match specific patient anatomy and surgical requirements.

Q7: Is the plate visible after surgery?

Due to its thin profile and placement within the orbital cavity, the plate is typically not visible externally after surgery.

Q8: What is the recovery time after orbital floor plate surgery?

Recovery time varies depending on the extent of the injury and individual patient factors. However, the minimal invasiveness of the plate contributes to faster healing.

Q9: Are there any risks associated with using an Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate?

As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks such as infection, implant failure, or allergic reactions. However, these risks are generally low.

Q10: Can the plate be removed after healing?

In most cases, the Anatomical Orbital Floor Plate is designed to be a permanent implant. Removal is typically not necessary unless complications arise.
