Summary

the study aims to compare 3D Interlocking miniplates with conventional miniplates in management of mandibular parasymphyseal fractures both clinically and radiographically.

Detailed description

A total of 12 patients with recent bilateral parasymphyseal mandibular fractures were treated with 3D Interlocking miniplates on one side and with conventional two miniplates in the other side. Clinical evaluations were carried at multiple intervals up to 6 weeks postoperatively, with radiographic assessments performed immediately after surgery and at 12 weeks to measure mean bone density at the fracture line

Conditions

• Mandibular Fractures
• Miniplate

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	3d-interlocking miniplate	3d-interlocking miniplate
DEVICE	Conventional miniplates	double miniplates in the conventional configuration
