“…Additionally, application has been extended to craniomaxillofacial trauma regions, from the mandible to the mid-face, especially in three-dimensional orbital trauma reconstruction [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [51] . The resorbable system is applicable for rigid internal fixation under specific conditions where muscular and stress forces are not a determining factor in fragment displacement, including mid-face and whole mandibular fractures [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [51] . In paediatric patients, the effective use of resorbable polyglycolic and poly- l -lactic acid plating systems was well reported by Stanton et al [52] , when combined with a brief postoperative period of intermaxillary fixation for mandibular fractures surgical treatment.…”
