Internal Fixations of Mandibular Angle Fracture
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
This study was done to review various internal fixation methods for the treatment of Mandibular angle fractures. It reviewed: 1) the epidemiology, 2) the aetiology, 3) the cross-section area of the angle along with presence and absence of mandibular 3rd molar, 4) the biomechanics of the angle, 5) the history of management of MAF’s, 6) the miniplates, 7) the approaches and 8) the strut plates. The current trends in treating a mandibular angle fracture is to use a single miniplate at the superior border for favourable angle fractures and 3D strut plates via a trans-buccal approach using trocar for unfavourable angle fractures.
