Right subcondylar fracture and left Parasymphysis fracture of mandible FINAL DIAGNOSIS
TREATMENT OPTIONS- Conservative Management Analgesia Antibiotics Soft diet A ctive Managemnt Open/closed reduction & fixation Immobilisation with IMF Rehabilitation Physiotherapy TREATMENT PLANNING
Establishment of occlusion Arch bars and maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) are almost always necessary to establish the premorbid relationship of the mandibular and maxillary teeth. Erich arch bars and wire loop maxillomandibular fixation are commonly used in this technique. Approach and exposure The most common approach is the t ransoral gingivolabial and gingivobuccal incision . For larger, comminuted fractures an external approach 2 fingers below mandible is given (to avoid injury to marginal mandiblular N). Fracture can also be exposed from existing laceration
Plating Technique Once the fracture is reduced and the angles have been squeezed together, plates are applied for fixatio n . The fracture is reduced with the bone reduction forceps and manual compression of the mandibular angles to avoid flaring. If the arch bars are going to be removed, a monocortical tension band is then applied to the upper Champy line using a 4 to 5 hole, 2.0-mm plate, and 4- to 5-mm screws
Plating Technique The lower border bicortical plate is then applied. The drill holes are made adjacent to the fracture one at a time and the drill guide is utilized to measure the thickness of the bone. A minimum of 2 holes are needed on either side of the fracture for stable fixation.
