Abstract:
A simple method of providing skeletal anchorage in maxillary distraction is described. The method utilizes cheap and readily available miniplates and provides rigid fixation to the fragment. It can be utilized at multiple levels in high-level osteotomies and situations with an inadequate dentition for anchorage.
