Rectangular Plate 1.5mm

Key Features and Benefits of Rectangular Plate 1.5mm

The Rectangular Plate offers a versatile and minimally invasive solution for bone fixation. Its rectangular shape provides a strong and stable foundation for bone healing. With a thickness of just 0.6mm, the plate minimizes tissue disruption and promotes rapid recovery. Crafted from biocompatible titanium, it ensures excellent integration with surrounding tissues and reduces the risk of complications. The plate’s design allows for customization and adaptability to various surgical procedures, making it a valuable tool for orthopedic and maxillofacial surgeons.

Indications for Rectangular Plate 1.5mm

The Rectangular Plate 1.5mm T: 0.6mm is indicated for a variety of orthopedic and maxillofacial surgical procedures requiring stable bone fixation. Its minimal thickness and robust design make it suitable for:

• Facial Fractures: Stabilization of zygomatic, orbital, and nasal bone fractures due to its adaptability and low profile.
• Orthognathic Surgery: Correction of jaw discrepancies and malocclusions through precise bone repositioning and fixation.
• Craniomaxillofacial Trauma: Management of complex facial fractures resulting from trauma, providing structural support for bone healing.
• Onlay Grafting: Securement of bone grafts in various surgical procedures, such as sinus lift and implant placement.
• Osteotomy: Stabilization of bone segments during osteotomy procedures for corrective jaw surgery.

How a Rectangular Plate 1.5mm Works

The Rectangular Plate is designed to provide stable support and fixation for bone fractures and reconstructions. The plate is secured to the bone using screws, creating a rigid framework. The 1.5mm width offers sufficient strength while the 0.6mm thickness minimizes tissue disruption. Its rectangular shape allows for versatile application in various surgical procedures. By bridging bone fragments and providing a stable environment, the plate promotes bone healing and union, ultimately restoring the bone’s structural integrity.

FAQ

Q1: What is a Rectangular Plate?

A Rectangular Plate is a medical implant used in orthopedic and maxillofacial surgery for bone fixation and support.

Q2: What do the numbers “1.5mm T: 0.6mm” signify in the plate?

The “1.5mm” refers to the width of the plate, while “T: 0.6mm” indicates the thickness of the plate.

Q3: What material is typically used for Rectangular Plates?

Rectangular Plates are commonly made from titanium due to its biocompatibility, strength, and resistance to corrosion.

Q4: What are the primary applications of a Rectangular Plate?

Rectangular Plates are used in various surgical procedures, including facial fracture repair, orthognathic surgery, and other bone reconstruction surgeries.

Q5: How is the Rectangular Plate secured to the bone?

The plate is typically secured to the bone using screws designed for this purpose. These screws are inserted through pre-drilled holes in the plate and into the bone.

Q6: What are the advantages of using a Rectangular Plate compared to other plate designs?

Rectangular Plates offer versatility, ease of application, and reliable bone stabilization, making them a suitable choice for various surgical procedures.

Q7: Is the Rectangular Plate a permanent implant?

In most cases, the Rectangular Plate is designed as a permanent implant to provide long-term support and stability to the bone. Removal is typically considered only in specific circumstances.

Q8: Can the Rectangular Plate be customized to fit specific patient needs?

While standard sizes are available, some manufacturers may offer customization options to fit specific patient anatomy and surgical requirements.

Q9: What is the typical recovery time after surgery involving a Rectangular Plate?

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

Q10: Are there any risks associated with using a Rectangular Plate?

As with any surgical implant, there are potential risks such as infection, implant failure, or allergic reactions. However, these risks are generally low when the implant is used correctly and post-operative care is followed.
