Mandible Mechanics & Fixation

Mandible lever mechanics: Class III lever: Tensile forces at upper surface, compressive forces at lower border. Finite element analysis: Bite force anterior/posterior to fracture → compressive forces at superior border. Lag screw fixation: Provides highest rigidity (2000 – 4000 N compressive force). Titanium plates: Least deflection under MRI; heat production is a concern. Stress shielding: Metallic plates cause atrophi…

Physiology
Hypoxia

Hypoxia Hypoxia is tissue oxygen deficiency Brain is the most sensitive tissue to hypoxia: complete lack of oxygen can cause unconsciousness in 15 sec and irreversible damage within 2 min. Oxygen delivery and use can be interrupted at several sites &nbsp; Type of Hypoxia O2 Uptake in Lungs Hemoglobin Circulation &nbsp;Tissue O2 Utilization &nbsp;H…
