Abstract
A review is presented of the application of miniplates in maxillofacial surgery, with an emphasis on maxillofacial trauma. The advantages are highlighted, particularly in relation to functional considerations, including jaw function, weight loss, and pulmonary function. Miniplates are considered to be the best treatment for patients with maxillofacial fractures.Entities:
