Finite Element and One Point Fixation

* A cone beam CT (CBCT) scan of the patient, will be used to create a 3D scanned image of ZMC * 3D images will be introduced to finite element (FA)software to evaluate Stresses (MPa) and Life time (cycle) For each model and determine which point of fixation is the best * After application this point of fixation on the patient * Finite element analysis will be done again to verify the previous results

Inclusion criteria

Fit to general anesthesia (GA)
Isolated minimally displaced zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fracture

Exclusion criteria

absence of other facial trauma, mandibular condylar fracture

Treatment and study plan

Zygomaticomaxillary fracture repair

Procedure

A cone beam CT (CBCT) scan of the patient will be used to create a 3D scanned image of zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture (ZMC)

3D images will be introduced to finite element (FA) software to evaluate Stresses (MPa), Micromotion (microns), and Life time (cycle) For each model and determine which point of fixation is the best
After application this point of fixation on the patient
Finite element analysis will be done again to verify the previous results

Primary outcomes

Stresses by megapascal (MPa)

Time frame: immediately after procedure

stress on the plate will be measured for each point of application by finite element (FA) software
