Maxillofacial Plate 1.5MM Self-drilling Screw

Product Overview of Maxillofacial 1.5mm Self-Drilling Orthopedic Screws

This 1.5mm self-drilling orthopedic screw is specifically developed for applications requiring delicate handling, precise placement, and reliable bone purchase. It eliminates the need for pre-drilling in many clinical scenarios, making it suitable for minimally invasive and time-sensitive procedures.

What Is a Maxillofacial 1.5mm Self-Drilling Screw in Orthopedic Surgery

A self-drilling screw combines drilling and fixation functions into a single implant. The cutting flutes at the tip allow the screw to penetrate cortical bone directly, reducing instrument changes and improving procedural efficiency during fixation of small anatomical structures.

Clinical Indications for Maxillofacial1.5mm Self-Drilling Screws

Maxillofacial and Craniofacial Fixation Applications

The 1.5mm self-drilling screw is widely used in maxillofacial and craniofacial surgeries for plate fixation, osteotomy stabilization, and fracture management where thin cortical bone and limited working space are involved.

Small Bone and Fragment Fixation in Orthopedic Trauma

This screw is suitable for fixing small bone fragments in hand, wrist, foot, and pediatric orthopedic trauma, where controlled insertion and reliable holding strength are essential.

Design Features of Maxillofacial 1.5mm Self-Drilling Cortical Screws

Self-Drilling Tip for Reduced Surgical Steps

The sharp, self-drilling tip allows direct insertion without pilot drilling in many cases, simplifying the surgical workflow and reducing operative time.

Thread Geometry for Reliable Bone Purchase

The optimized thread profile provides consistent engagement with cortical bone, ensuring stable fixation while minimizing the risk of micro-fractures or stripping.

Material Options and Surface Treatment

Titanium Alloy and Medical-Grade Stainless Steel Options

The 1.5mm self-drilling screw is available in titanium alloy for enhanced biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, as well as medical-grade stainless steel for cost-effective fixation solutions.

Surgical Advantages in Minimally Invasive Fixation

Improved Efficiency in Small Fragment Fixation

By reducing surgical steps and instrument exchanges, the self-drilling design improves procedural efficiency, particularly in minimally invasive and delicate fixation procedures.

Q6:How long do cranial maxillofacial plates and screws last?

Cranial maxillofacial plates and screws can usually last a lifetime, but regular check-ups are needed to ensure their proper function.

Q7:Can cranial maxillofacial plates and screws cause allergies?

Titanium alloy and biomaterials typically do not cause allergies, but a small number of patients may be allergic to stainless steel.

Q8:How long does it take to return to normal life after surgery?

Most patients can return to normal life within a few weeks to months after surgery, but the specific time varies from person to person.

Q9:Do cranial maxillofacial plates and screws need to be replaced?

Under normal circumstances, cranial maxillofacial plates and screws do not need to be replaced, but if complications or damage occur, surgery may be needed to replace them.

Q10:Are cranial maxillofacial plates and screws suitable for all patients?

Cranial maxillofacial plates and screws are not suitable for all patients. Doctors will evaluate whether these implants are suitable based on the specific situation.
