Abstract
A lag screw and parallel double plates appear to be suitable for symphyseal fixation, whereas 2 straightly positioned plates and a trapezoidal plate are suitable for condylar fixation. However, the combination of perpendicular plates in symphyseal fixation and a trapezoidal plate in condylar fixation showed an altered stress distribution.
