IMF screw
+ Description
The IMF Screw (Intermaxillary Fixation Screw) is a vital implant used in maxillofacial surgeries to secure and stabilize the maxillary and mandibular bones during post-operative healing, particularly in cases of jaw fractures or during orthognathic surgeries. The IMF Screw is designed to connect the upper and lower jaws, aiding in the stabilization of the intermaxillary relationship during the healing process.
+ Indications
- Maxillofacial Fracture Stabilization – Primarily used in the stabilization of fractures of the maxilla and mandible, ensuring proper alignment and reducing complications like malocclusion.
- Intermaxillary Fixation (IMF) – Used in conjunction with IMF devices to stabilize the upper and lower jaws after surgery or trauma, ensuring proper alignment during the recovery phase.
- Orthognathic Surgery – Used during orthognathic surgeries to secure the repositioned jaw segments and ensure stable healing.
- Trauma and Accident Recovery – Ideal for patients recovering from facial trauma, including fractures caused by blunt force, accidents, or falls, helping to restore the proper anatomical alignment.
- Cosmetic Facial Surgery – Helps in facial reconstruction and aesthetic surgeries by stabilizing bone segments and aiding in the restoration of facial symmetry.
- Post-Surgical Orthodontic Treatment – Used in orthodontic procedures where jaw stabilization is needed post-surgery to ensure proper alignment of the teeth and jaw.
+ Key Features
- Precision Threading: Ensures secure fixation of the maxilla and mandible, providing enhanced stability during the healing process.
- Biocompatible Materials: Made from Titanium or Stainless Steel, providing excellent strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion.
- Compact and Low Profile: Designed to be minimally invasive, ensuring patient comfort and minimal soft tissue interference during the healing process.
- Easy to Insert: The screw design allows for easy placement and provides secure stabilization with minimal complication.
- Radiolucent (Titanium Option): Ensures clear and accurate radiographic imaging for post-operative monitoring of fracture healing.
- Versatile Application: Available in multiple sizes to accommodate various jaw sizes, patient needs, and fracture types.
- ISO and CE Certified: Meets international medical device standards, ensuring reliability and patient safety in clinical use.
