Rigid Internal Fixation vs. Traditional Techniques for the Treatment of Mandible Fractures

description Treatment results were compared between mandibular fractures repaired with vitallium miniplates versus intermaxillary fixation (IMF) and wire osteosynthesis in 79 patients treated over a 4-year period. The postoperative courses of 35 patients treated with 46 plates were compared to those of 44 individuals treated with traditional reduction techniques. The plated group contained nine complications (26%) versus ten (23%) in the non-plated group. This difference was not statistically significant, despite the presence of more severe fractures in the plated group. Major complications (nonunions, malocclusions) were noted in only three (8%) of the plated group; there were six complications (14%) in the non-plated group. We conclude that the plating of mandibular fractures incurs no greater overall risk of complications than traditional methods of fixation, and a lower risk of major complications, and that the advantages of plate fixation, including decreased time of intermaxillary fixation and cost effectiveness, make this the method of choice in complex mandibular fractures, even in a high-risk population.
