Summary
14 patients having recent anterior mandibular fracture divided into two groups. Group A has 6 patients and treated using Herbert bone screw, and group B has 6 patients and treated using lag screw. Clinical follow-up was conducted after 24-hours, one, four, six, and twelve weeks. In addition, a radiographic investigation was performed after twelve weeks to estimate the mean bone density across the fracture line.
Conditions

| OTHER | Herbert screw | Fracture line exposed through intra-oral approach. bone reduction into proper anatomical occlusion and application of Herbert screw |
| OTHER | Lag screw | Fracture line exposed through intra-oral approach. bone reduction into proper anatomical occlusion. Application of either lag screw according to Champy's osteosynthesis lines. |
