CMF fractures are common injuries resulting from trauma to the face and/or head. CMF fractures are currently treated with internal fixation devices consisting of metallic plates and screws to align and stabilize the fracture site(s) during healing. Bending and shaping plate profiles to align with the fracture site geometry requires specialized contouring tools, experience and significant time input. Post-operative complications including pain, temperature intolerance and palpability, resulting in re-operation rates as high as 50% for removal of hardware. The high rigidity of these metallic plates may also contribute to stress shielding, consequently reducing natural bone formation and healing rates. Furthermore, fixation of metallic plates with screws is only possible in regions containing adequate bone thickness and density. The anatomic location and injury pattern can impact bone quality and subsequently jeopardize suitability of these sites for screw placement. ****

CMF 骨折是面部和/或头部创伤造成的常见损伤。目前，CMF 骨折采用由金属板和螺钉组成的内固定装置进行治疗，以在愈合过程中对齐和稳定骨折部位。弯曲和塑造板轮廓以与骨折部位几何形状对齐需要专门的轮廓工具、经验和大量时间投入。术后并发症包括疼痛、温度不耐受和可触及，导致移除硬件的再次手术率高达 50%。这些金属板的高刚性也可能有助于应力屏蔽，从而降低自然骨形成和愈合率。此外，只有在具有足够骨厚度和密度的区域中才可以用螺钉固定金属板。解剖位置和损伤模式会影响骨质量，并随后危及这些部位螺钉放置的适用性。 ****
