This report describes a simple, effective technique that has been used on 12 patients to correct unstable rotated trimalar fractures, with or without comminution of the infraorbital rim. Eleven of the patients were followed up to 46 months, and all showed satisfactory results.

Of the 952 alloplastic endosteal implants studied for up to 108 months, only the endodontic endosteal implant demonstrated long-range success. A success rate of 49% after 72 months was found in all but the endosteal implants. The evaluation of individual implant designs demonstrated that long, straight shaft lengths such as the transosteal impland survived for long periods. Future efforts should be applied to studies on the use of porous metals, polymers, ceramics, and carbons in laboratory animals, to evaluate attachment phenomena and stability of the gingival cuff. In this manner, we may establish reliable standards and procedures that may be used confidently by the practitioner.
