Mandible Fracture
Conditions
Brief summary
This clinical trial is designed to compare post-operative infection, symptoms of paresthesia, inferior border misalignment and operating time of one plate with arch bar against standard two miniplates in mandibular parasymphysis fracture in order to achieve the treatment which is beneficial for the patients. This study will contribute to literature for the betterment of patient. The objective of this study is to compare the post-operative efficacy of arch bar with single plate and two plate fixation in mandibular parasymphsis fracture.
Interventions
Titanium miniplates are used for open reduction and internal fixation in mandible fractures according to Champy's principle of osteosynthesis
Arch bars are used for intermaxillary fixation in facial fractures as a mean of closed reduction.In this study arch bars placed in tension zone will be combined with single miniplate placed at inferior border of mandible and this modality efficacy will be compared with two miniplate group.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Osseous alignment | Final Alignment will be checked after one month | It is checked after the surgical procedure by evaluating the continuity of lower border of mandible on orthopentomogram on first post-operative day, after 15 days and after 1 month |
