Abstract:
This report is a retrospective study of 76 patients with mandibular fractures treated by compression osteosynthesis. Good results were achieved in 83% of the cases. The complications encountered were either soft tissue infections or minor malocclusions. It was concluded that the relatively low rate of complications can be further reduced by careful selection of patients and meticulous performance of the technique.
