Product Description
The 1.5mm Locking Maxillofacial Plate System utilizes screws that lock into the plate, creating a fixed-angle construct that maintains fracture reduction even under load. This avoids plate pull-out and enhances stability.
The plates are designed to be thin and low-profile, minimizing palpability and soft tissue irritation, which is particularly beneficial for thin bone areas like the orbit and craniofacial skeleton.
Locking plates reduce the need for high compression against the bone surface, which helps preserve periosteal blood supply, promoting biological bone healing.
The system offers specialized micro-plates for orbital and nasal reconstruction, as well as contourable plates suitable for zygomatic and Le Fort I fracture stabilization.
The system is highly indicated for orbital floor and rim fractures, as well as complex nasal and naso-orbito-ethmoid (NOE) injuries due to its precise fixation capabilities.
The 1.5mm Locking Maxillofacial Plate System is used for non-load-bearing fractures of the cranial vault and frontal bone, where soft tissue coverage is thin and a low-profile solution is mandatory.
It is suitable for the fixation of zygomatic arch fractures, Le Fort I osteotomies, and midface fractures where rigid but less bulky fixation is preferred.

The 1.5mm Locking Maxillofacial Plate System is a type of surgical fixation system used to stabilize small bones in the face and cranium. The "1.5mm" refers to the diameter of the screws. The key "Locking" feature means the screw threads into both the bone and the plate, creating a structure that resists movement and provides angular stability, which is essential for complex fractures in areas with delicate soft tissue coverage.
Its primary applications are in highly aesthetic and complex areas such as the orbit (eye socket), nasal bones, and the zygomatic arch. The system's ability to provide rigid fixation with minimal bulk makes it invaluable for treating fractures caused by trauma, as well as for reconstructive surgery and orthognathic procedures (jaw alignment).
The locking mechanism is a major advantage, as it improves the stability of the fixation without stripping the bone's threads. This feature is particularly useful in areas of poor bone quality. Additionally, the low-profile plates are less visible and palpable beneath the skin, contributing to better cosmetic outcomes.
The biomechanics of this system shift the stability mechanism from friction between the plate and bone to a fixed-angle construct. This creates a strong, internal frame that supports the bone fragments like an internal splint. The result is superior resistance to torsional and bending forces, which is essential for preserving the complex, three-dimensional geometry of the facial skeleton.
The technique involves meticulously reducing the fracture fragments, contouring the low-profile titanium plate, and then inserting the 1.5mm locking screws. Unlike traditional systems, over-tightening is not necessary to achieve rigidity; the strength comes from the screw-plate lock. The instrumentation is designed to facilitate accurate placement in confined surgical fields.
Postoperative care typically involves managing swelling and protecting the surgical site. Due to the enhanced rigidity provided by the locking plates, patients may be able to return to light function sooner, although diet and activity restrictions are still necessary to ensure proper bone fusion.
The 1.5mm Locking Maxillofacial Plate System represents the pinnacle of modern CMF fixation technology. Manufactured by TOOLMED, it offers surgeons angular stability, a low-profile design, and versatility for the most complex midface and cranial trauma. The system’s design philosophy promotes optimal biological and aesthetic outcomes, making it the preferred choice for delicate facial reconstruction.
