Abstract

Another technique for the fixation of an arch bar which is needed to maintain proper occlusion is described. It gives secure fixation for the treatment of maxillo-mandibular fracture with shorter fixation and removal time from about thirty minutes to fifteen minutes. This technique can also be used in orthognathic surgery.
