Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
- Anatomic parameters: 1. Anatomic position of the fracture on radiologic imaging by means of comparison after mirroring of the contralateral side in millimetres (continuous) and degrees (continuous). 2. Occlusion disorder (yes/no). - Masticatory performance tested with Mixing Ability Test: outcome in pixels (continuous)	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
- Functional parameters: 1. Pain registration with the VAS-score in millimetres (continuous) 2. Clinical examination of the mandible: laterotrusion, protrusion, maximal opening of the mouth measuring interincisal distance, deviation of the chin when opening) in millimetres (continuous), tenderness of the TMJ. - Subjective parameters: 1. RAND36 questionnaire (continuous) 2. MFIQ questionnaire (continuous)	—
