The authors report on the application of the NiTi and TiNiCo shape memory clamps for the connection of bone fracture in 81 patients suffering from mandible fractures. They have also made an attempt of work out a new, so far not used, method of gradual bone lengthening which uses NiTi superelastic distraction devices. So far to operations have been performed on two pigs where the U-shaped NiTi superelastic distraction devices where used and placed immediately on the bone above the periosteum. Too few attempts are not enough to allow for an objective evaluation of the proposed method of bone lengthening.
