Indications for Internal Fixation
1989The fracture, of course, is the first and most important indication for functionally stable internal fixation with the object of restoring the form and function of the mandible, relieving pain, and avoiding late sequelae. Additional considerations such as primary bone union, decreased hospital time, and an earlier return to work are important but are ...

Principles of Internal Fixation
2005The principal mechanical function of bone is to act as a supporting structure and transmit load. The loads which bone has to withstand are those of pure compression, those of bending, which result in one cortex being loaded in tension and the other in compression, and those of torque, or twisting. Bone is strongest in compression and weakest in tension.
