“…This result is consistent with those of other studies, including that of Vineeth et al, which found that patients treated with Champy's technique had limited mouth opening at the 1-month postoperative visit. 16 However, all patients in their study resumed normal mouth opening by the third month.…”

“…The management strategies associated with the bilateral or multi-fractured mandible differ from those of the isolated angle fracture. 16,30 The complexity involved with the multi-fractured mandible, including establishment of occlusion, stability of segments, and fixation sequencing, can all influence the rate of complications in mandible fracture management. Other limitations of this study include the paucity of follow-up data.…”

“…10 The geometry of the plate's design allows for increased stability and resistance against torsion while maintaining malleability and a low profile. 16 This simultaneously stabilizes both the tension and compression zones at the injury site, thus reducing surgical times when compared to the conventional two-plate technique. 1 Regarding the mandibular angle, the best site for plating is along the superior aspect of the mandible, particularly at the flat osseous section approximating the third molar.…”

“…There have been many studies concerned with the fixation method used for mandibular angle fractures. [ 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 ] Some researchers have advocated the use of two miniplates, one on the external oblique ridge and the other on the lower border of the mandible, to obtain stable fixation based on biomechanical studies. [ 20 21 22 ] However, Ellis and Walker reported high complication rates in cases intraorally fixed with two miniplates.…”

Purpose:The purpose was to analyze the clinical course of surgically treated mandibular angle fractures from the viewpoint of routine removal of the plate because these fractures are associated with high rates of complications and plate removal.Subjects and Methods:The subjects were 40 patients with unilateral mandibular angle fracture, which was intraorally reduced and principally fixed with a single miniplate on the external oblique ridge. The third molar in relation to the fracture line was extracted in seven patients during the surgery. Clinical course was evaluated in terms of removal of the plate, preservation of the third molar and complications.Results:One patient showed a wound infection postoperatively, and two patients developed pericoronitis during the follow-up. These were managed with medication and local irrigation. One patient with a preserved third molar did not make a required visit and was lost from the follow-up. Removal of the plates was performed in 39 patients after confirmation of good fracture healing, mostly within a year. Twenty-four of 32 preserved third molars were simultaneously extracted. These procedures were generally performed under local anesthesia on an outpatient basis, and they did not cause any complications.Conclusions:Routine removal of the plate after surgical treatment for mandibular angle fractures, simultaneously with extraction of the third molar if indicated, may be beneficial to avoid complications related to the plate and the third molar later in life.

“…[1112] Patients of both the groups which reported post-operative malocclusion were relieved by selective grinding and enameloplasty of the dentition. Jules et al ,[13] also reported similar findings of better intrinsic stability, more resistance to fracture fragment mobility in a series of 22 patients of mandibular angle fracture treated with 2.0 mm matrix miniplate.…”

Aim:The purpose of this study was to determine and compare various postoperative parameters like ease of operability, plate adaptability, stability etc., associated with use of matrix miniplate versus locking miniplate in the treatment of displaced mandibular angle fractures.Materials and Methods:The study was carried out in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial surgery, King George's Medical College, GM and Associated Hospital, Lucknow. Total 50 patients were treated and included in the study. These were divided into two groups of 25 each and were treated with two of the standard techniques, i.e., one is matrix miniplate osteosynthesis and other is locking miniplate osteosynthesis. These patients were evaluated for postoperative complications and the differences between the two Groups were assessed.Results:Patients treated by matrix miniplate showed better recovery phase postoperatively as compared to locking miniplate group.Conclusion:Based on this study matrix mini plate osteosynthesis may be considered as the better alternative method available for the treatment of displaced mandibular angle fractures.
