OPEN REDUCTION AND INTERNAL FIXATION (ORIF) USING MINI PLATE IN MANDIBULAR FRACTURES
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PURE MEDICAL RESEARCH - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The mandible is the lower jaw bone in humans as a place of attachment to the lower jaw teeth. The loss of continuity in the mandible includes 40% - 62% of all facial fractures, the ratio of men and women, namely 3: 1-7: 1. According to a survey at the District of Columbia Hospital, of 540 fracture cases, 69% of cases occurred due to physical violence (ghts), 27% due to traffic accidents, 12% due to work accidents, 2% due to sports accidents and 4% due to pathology.1,2 The gold standard for diagnosing mandibular fractures is a clinical examination. Examination is done carefully in areas with suspected fractures. Clinical examination is equipped with radiography for diagnosis and therapeutic planning. In particular, treatment of mandibular and facial fractures on the face (maxillofacial) was introduced by Hippocrates (460-375 BC) using occlusion guidance (the ideal relationship between the lower teeth and maxillary teeth), as a rationale and diagnosis of mandibular fractures.
