In our study an 11-year-old girl was reffered to our clinic with facial asymmetry who were treated with titan mech for mandibular fracture when she was 4 years old. Titan mech was to be left in her mouth for seven years. Under local anesthesia titan mech and screws were removed by intra-oral approach. Furthermore distraction osteogenesis was planned for the treatment of facial asymmetry. As a result of this paper we recommend that screws and plates should be removed as soon as healing period is over and especially in pediatric cases, doctors must have a greater responsibility about therapy period.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArticle2021851872-s2.0-3374577117610.1080/13102818.2006.10817364N/A
