Abstract

The poly-L-lactic acid mini-plate system accomplished rapid development. However, the system still has a variety of problems. One such problem is the breakage of screws. In this technical report, we develop the temporary fixing screws made from stainless with hexagon steel that exhibit a hexagonal head and thread part that also features a tapping function.
