Summary

This randomized clinical trial compares virtually designed custom-made titanium plates with conventional three-dimensional (3D) lambda plates for the fixation of mandibular subcondylar fractures. A total of 24 fracture sites will be treated using a retromandibular trans-masseteric approach and evaluated through virtual surgical planning, radiographic analysis, and functional outcomes. The study aims to determine whether customized plates provide superior anatomical accuracy, stability, and recovery compared with standard 3D plates.

Conditions

  • Mandibular Sub-condylar Fracture
