Deformation map for the graft/mandible junction (a) and von Mises stress distribution along the releasable Ti-6Al-4V hardware (b) in the second stage. The observed gap is less than the allowable gap (200–400 μm) and the maximum observed von Mises stresses are less than their yielding points (superior hardware: 1186.8 MPa, and inferior hardware: 1098.6 MPa). (Units: micron (μm) and megapascal (MPa)).
