A three-dimensional finite element model of a fractured human mandible treated with plating technique was developed to simulate and to study the biomechanical loads and the stress field distribution. Biomechanical properties of bone have been thoroughly investigated experimentally. In this work, using the finite element method, complete clinical conditions (after surgical reduction, post-operatory period, complete healing period) were simulated. The mandible fracture was located in the symphysis region and one or two titanium miniplates, fixed with monocortical screws, were evaluated. The behaviour of a reduced human mandible with screwed miniplates, as well as its complete healing, is investigated and described.
