Resorbable (bioresorbable) plates or screws for fixation vs Titanium plates or screws for fixation

Postoperative pain during the immediate recovery period (VAS 0 to 10) · Adults (>16 years old) undergoing orthognathic surgery

It is very uncertain whether resorbable (bioresorbable) plates or screws for fixation changes postoperative pain during the immediate recovery period (VAS 0 to 10) compared with titanium plates or screws for fixation (very low certainty).
