Key Features and Benefits of the 2.4mm Self-tapping Screw

The 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw offers precise and efficient fixation in maxillofacial surgery. Its self-tapping design enables quick and secure insertion into bone, minimizing surgical time. The 2.4mm diameter is optimized for delicate facial bone structures, ensuring minimal tissue trauma. Crafted from high-grade titanium, the screw is biocompatible and corrosion-resistant, promoting optimal healing and long-term implant stability.

 

Indications for 2.4mm Self-tapping Screw

The 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw is primarily indicated for use in maxillofacial surgery. Its applications include:

  • Facial Fracture Fixation: Securing bone fragments in facial fractures involving the zygomatic arch, orbital floor, and nasal bones.
  • Osteotomy: Stabilization of bone segments after surgical cutting of the bone for corrective procedures.
  • Cleft Lip and Palate Repair: Fixation of bone grafts in reconstructive surgeries.
  • Implant Placement: Anchoring dental implants or other prosthetic devices in the maxillofacial region.
  • Orthognathic Surgery: Supporting bone repositioning in procedures to correct jaw alignment.
  • Sinus Surgery: Fixation of bone grafts or supporting structures.

 

How a 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw Works

The 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw is a surgical implant designed for use in maxillofacial procedures. It is inserted into pre-drilled holes in the bone using a rotational motion. The self-tapping threads cut into the bone, creating a secure and stable fixation. The 2.4mm diameter is specifically designed for delicate facial bone structures, minimizing tissue trauma and ensuring optimal implant stability. This allows for precise bone fixation and support during the healing process.

 

FAQ

Q1: What is a 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw?

A 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw is a small, specialized medical implant used in maxillofacial surgery. It is designed to be inserted into bone without pre-drilling and provides secure fixation for bone fragments.

Q2: What is the purpose of a 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw?

The primary purpose of a 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw is to stabilize bone fragments during maxillofacial surgeries, such as facial fracture repair and orthognathic procedures.

Q3: Why is the diameter 2.4mm?

The 2.4mm diameter is specifically designed for use in the delicate bone structures of the face and jaw, minimizing tissue damage while providing adequate strength.

Q4: What is meant by “self-tapping”?

Self-tapping refers to the screw’s ability to create its own thread in the bone as it is inserted, eliminating the need for pre-drilling and reducing surgical time.  

Q5: What material is typically used for Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screws?

Titanium is the most common material due to its biocompatibility, strength, and resistance to corrosion.

Q6: What are the benefits of using a 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw?

The benefits include faster surgical time, reduced tissue trauma, secure fixation, and improved patient outcomes.

Q7: Are there different lengths available for Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screws?

Yes, Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screws come in various lengths to accommodate different surgical needs.

Q8: Is the 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw a permanent implant?

Generally, yes. Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screws are typically designed as permanent implants. However, removal may be considered in specific cases.

Q9: What are the potential risks associated with using a 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screw?

As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks such as infection, hardware failure, and nerve damage. However, these risks are generally low when the procedure is performed by an experienced surgeon.

Q10: What is the recovery time after surgery involving 2.4mm Maxillofacial Self-tapping Screws?

Recovery time varies depending on the extent of the surgery and the individual patient. Typically, it involves a period of swelling, discomfort, and limited mouth opening. Most patients return to normal activities within a few weeks.
