Aim: To compare the postoperative complications of fixing Mandibular angle fractures with two non-compression mini plates, on the superior and lateral the aspects of the mandible, to the standard technique of using a single non-compression miniplate on the superior border. Methodology: Fifty patients with MAF were divided equally into two groups. Patients in Group 1 were secured with two mini plates at the lateral and superior border of the MA using an extraoral approach; for patients in Group 2 a single non-compression miniplate was used via an intraoral extended third molar approach as described by Champy et al. The post-operative complications in both groups were compared statistically. Results: The findings of this study revealed that there was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups when fixing MAF with two non-compression mini plates versus the standard technique of using a single non compression miniplate on the superior border of the mandible. However, the surgery time with one miniplate was significantly more than the dual plate approach. Conclusion: We advocate using two mini plates to treat an unfavorable angle fracture. |
