Abstract
Use of ultrasonic-aided pins in fixation of resorbable mesh plates, in Le Fort I osteotomies, is a viable technique and superior resorbable plating system because it is easy to use, results in adequate fixation strength, and shortens time of application by eliminating the need for tapping. In addition, this resorbable system eliminates many disadvantages associated with using all-titanium fixation.
