Skeletal Anchorage Utilising Bone Plates
Australasian Orthodontic Journal, 1985 Skeletal anchorage may be obtained by bone plates in the ramus, to provide the reciprocal forces required in some orthodontic procedures. Distallising of a lower molar in a crowded buccal segment is described in a Case Report.

Bone morphological feature extraction for customized bone plate design [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Fractures are difficult to treat because of individual differences in bone morphology and fracture types. Compared to serialized bone plates, the use of customized plates significantly improves the fracture healing process.

The Clinical Usefulness of Ultrasound-Aided Fixation Using an Absorbable Plate System in Patients with Zygomatico-Maxillary Fracture [PDF]
Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2013 BackgroundUltrasound-aided fixation is a recently developed alternative method of treatment of zygomatico-maxillary (ZM) fracture, and it can resolve the problems of excessive torsion force and subsequent fractures of screws.

An Unusual Case of “Locking” of the Knee Four Years Post Fixation of an Open Supracondylar Femur Fracture [PDF]
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2013 The introduction of locking plate devices have increased the number of viable options for fracture fixation. An understanding of the indications and contraindications and technique limitations are important to minimise associated adverse events.
