Efficacy of three-dimension curved angle strut plate versus two miniplates in mandibular angle fracture fixation
Abstract
In this study, we proposed to determine the superiority or inferiority of the 3-D fixation method and two miniplate fixation methods in mandibular angle fractures. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 3-D curved angle strut plate and two miniplates in mandibular angle fracture fixation. The aim of this study was evaluate the efficacy of three dimension curved angle strut plate versus two miniplates in mandibular angle fracture fixation. Sixteen patients requiring internal fixation of the mandibular angle fractures divided into two groups eight in each group, group I was treated with using 3D curved angle strut plate. Group II was treated using two 2-mm miniplates. The results of this study suggested that there are statistically significant in time elapsed between plate adaptation and definitive fixation (min) between two groups. Conclusions: The 3D curved angle plate has relatively few or no postoperative complications compared to other techniques.
