Özet

The stability of segments after Le Fort I osteotomy first attracted the researcher's interest when the surgical concept was conceived. Prebent plates are the ultimate modification of plate systems in craniofacial surgery; they have two right angles and are available in different lengths for use in maxillary advancement surgery.
