Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • computer tomography

    the Computer Tomography Will calculate the segments deviation in mm. after 3 month .

    after 3 months

Study Arms (2)

specific screw holes locating surgical guide and pre-bent plates

EXPERIMENTAL

Put the specific screw holes locating device in place and drill the screw holes, remove the screw holes locating device and mobilize the segments then apply the pre-bent plates and fix it with screw for passive reduction of the segments. Then suture the mentalis muscle then the mucosa.

Device: specific screw holes locating surgical guide and pre-bent plates

classical reduction and fixation

OTHER

mobilize the broken segment first, Arch bar was made to achieve proper occlusion put the compression plate on the inferior border and remove it for further bending using plate pliers for further accommodation of the plate on the inferior border the fix it in place using compression and tension plate.

Device: classical reduction and internal fixation.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with delayed and isolated mandibular class III fracture needs open reduction and internal fixation.
  • Patients with medical history that did not hinder plate placement (uncontrolled diabetes) and adequate proper oral hygiene.
  • Both genders males and females will be included.

You may not qualify if:

  • General contraindications to surgery.
  • Patients with fresh fractures (mobile segments).
  • Patients with unfavourable nor comminuted fractures.
  • Subjected to irradiation in the head and neck area less than 1 year before fixation.
  • Untreated periodontitis.
  • Poor oral hygiene and motivation.
  • Uncontrolled diabetes.
  • Pregnant or nursing.
  • Substance abuse.
  • Psychiatric problems or unrealistic expectations.
  • Severe bruxism or clenching.
  • Immunosuppressed or immunocompromised.
  • Treated or under treatment with intravenous amino-bisphosphonates.
  • Patients participating in other studies, if the present protocol could not be properly followed.
