Abstract

The potential benefits of resorbable plates in the treatment of facial bone fractures is briefly examined in this article. Resorbable plates are becoming more and more popular as an alternative to conventional metallic implants because of their biocompatibility and special capacity to degrade gradually, reducing the need for additional removal surgeries. The article focuses into the biomechanical performance of resorbable plates, clarifying its ability to provide stable fixation with minimal disruption to postoperative imaging. A thorough examination of current clinical trials highlights promising results and tackles issues that arise in practical implementations. This paper explores how resorbable plate technology is developing, including new developments and research being done to improve manufacturing processes and material qualities. Surgeons might gain significant information by paying attention to parameters like deterioration kinetics and patient-specific characteristics. The potential of resorbable plates to transform the treatment of facial bone fractures is emphasized as the discussion comes to a close. Resorbable plates are positioned as a promising way to improve patient outcomes and advance the field of facial reconstructive surgery with an in-depth understanding of their advantages and limitations.
