Among the fracture in oral and maxillofacial trauma compound, the one in lower third occupy prominent place due to its frequency and immediate esthetic and functional damage. Several techniques and materials are used for its treatment, for example, the titanium screws and plates and, more recently, a bio-absorbable system in which, once intalled the plate and screws, it will be degraded by the organism. The present work describes a clinical case of a facial trauma with consequent mandible fracture in a female patient aging 39 years old. Once reduced the fracture, the stabilization was accomplished by the bio-absorbable system. There was not any rejection to the material and the patient developed satisfactorily after the treatment.
