Summary

Hypothesis The investigators hypothesis that fixation of mandibular angle fractures using a 3D titanium miniplate will provide better occlusal bite force than intraoral fixation using the standard two-plate technique.

The investigators expect that this method will facilitate a faster recovery time for participants to regain baseline occlusion force.

Conditions

  • Mandible Fracture
  • Force Measurement

Interventions

DEVICE

Two Standard Plate Fixation

Fixation using two titanium miniplates. One plate at the inferior border of the mandible with bicortical screws. Second plate \~5 mm above or at the external oblique ridge with monocortical screws.

DEVICE

3D Titanium Miniplate (2.0 mm, 8-hole).

Single 2.0 mm 9-hole 3D titanium plate fixed with monocortical screws. Plate contoured with horizontal crossbars perpendicular and vertical struts parallel to fracture line. Screws placed diagonally first.
