Finite Element Stress Analysis of Keyhole Plate System in Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy
Abstract A new miniplate applied differently from conventional application method for bone fixation has been developed. The novel approach is the insertion of the screw into the bone before miniplate installation. This study aimed to assess the stress distribution of a newly designed Yang’s Keyhole...
