Article Synopsis
- The zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) is a key part of the facial skeleton that often suffers fractures, making their management a subject of debate among practitioners due to various treatment techniques available.
- The aim of the study was to systematically review existing literature to determine whether two-point or three-point fixation is more effective for treating ZMC fractures, utilizing a meta-analysis approach.
- The review included 11 studies, with 8 suitable for meta-analysis, analyzing treatment outcomes and applying statistical methods to assess the effectiveness of the fixation techniques.
Background: Mandibular fractures are frequent in facial trauma. Management of mandibular condylar fractures (MCF) remains an ongoing matter of controversy in maxillofacial injury. A number of techniques, from closed reduction (CR) to open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), can be effectively used to manage these fractures.

December 2023
Background: The research paper emphasizes on virtual simulation of craniofacial skeleton to understand its Biomechanics.
Methods: In this study, a 3D finite element model of the skull was created using CT scan data. All complexities of the skull geometry are simulated using ABAQUS software.
Efficacy of Nasal Floor Augmentation on the Survival Rate of Dental Implants: A Systematic Review.
J Maxillofac Oral Surg
September 2023
Article Synopsis
- This systematic review aimed to evaluate the impact of nasal floor augmentation on the survival rates of dental implants by analyzing existing literature.
- The review process followed PRISMA guidelines, searching databases like PubMed and Google Scholar for studies between 2000 and December 2021, ultimately including nine studies that met the eligibility criteria.
- Findings showed that nasal floor augmentation techniques yielded high survival rates (100% in case reports and 89%-100% in comparative studies) without complications, suggesting it is a reliable treatment, but the authors stress the need for more extensive research due to limited existing studies.
