Objective: To investigate the effect of soft tissue incision and rigid internal fixation in the treatment of zygomatic fracture.
Methods: 70 cases with zygomatic fracture were entered into the study. The clinical data of 65 patients who were performed operations in the treatment were analyzed. The study focused on the incision, number and locations of Titanium plate. The facial contour, reduction,fixation, healing of incision, facial bisymmetry and complications of the operation were followed up 3 - 24 months after surgery.
Results: All the incisions were primary healing. Clinical and radiologic assessment of reduction was symmetric and stable in 91.5% of all cases, asymmetric in 8.5% of all cases. Subcutaneous hematoma happened in 5 cases, Ti plate exposure 1 in case, scalp scar width was more than 0.5 cm in 6 cases, frontal part or scalp paresthesia 8 cases.
Conclusions: Coronal scalp incision has advantages such as good exposure, precise removal of the bone block and good symmetry of both sides. RIF can improve the stability of fracture, promotes fracture healing and guarantees the rehabilitation of zygomatic complex. direct reduction and rigid internal fixation with Titanium microplate or miniplate are satisfactory in zygomatic fracture.

Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is known for its biostimulant properties, which can reduce inflammation and promote tissue regeneration. The present study is randomized, blinded, and placebo-controlled and aims to investigate the role of LLLT in the postoperative recovery of facial fractures. Patients with fractures of the zygomatic bone are selected and divided into two groups: low-level laser and red placebo light.

The scarring stage of noma disease often presents with composite tissue loss involving hard and soft tissues with resultant fibrosis making reconstruction a challenge. Microvascular reconstruction option is associated with good outcomes when the expertise is available. Trismus, which is caused by either soft tissue fibrosis or the union of the coronoid to the zygomatic complex, is also a common presentation.

Objective: This expert opinion presents provisional guidelines for addressing complications associated with Additively Manufactured Subperiosteal Jaw Implants (AMSJI®) in patients with severe maxillary atrophy. AMSJI®'s custom design, supported by finite element analysis (FEA), allows precise placement that avoids critical anatomical structures and minimizes complications relative to alternative solutions.
Materials And Methods: Data were gathered through firsthand experiences, direct communications, two structured surveys and insights from international workgroup meetings.
