Bilateral Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2010
The mandibular angle is a frequent site of fracture. It is a weak zone that is more exposed to fractures than other areas of the mandibular bone. The presence of incompletely erupted third molars is associated with a further increased risk of angle fractures.

Treatment Modalities for Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2005
Management of mandibular angle fractures is often challenging and results in the highest complication rate among fractures of the mandible. Optimal treatment for angle fractures remains controversial. Historically, treatment of mandible fractures included intraoperative maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) along with rigid internal fixation. More recently,

Surgical Management of Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2018
Purpose:The study proposed to determine the superiority between different fixation methods in the mandibular angle fractures (MAFs) and to evaluate best option for surgeon and patient.Methods:A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines, examining Medline-Ovid, Embase, and Pubmed databases.

Analysis of 115 Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2008
This retrospective study reviewed cases of fractures of the mandibular angle to identify personal data, social traits, fracture characteristics, treatment modalities, and postoperative complications.From April 1999 until July 2004, 114 patients were treated for 115 fractures of the mandibular angle by the Division of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at ...

Mandibular Angle Fractures

Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery, 2003
Noncompression monocortical miniplate fixation of the mandibular angle is an accepted and reliable method for providing rigid internal fixation. High complication rates have been reported for internal fixation of angle fractures.To analyze the outcome and complications in cases in which patients were treated with 2-miniplate fixation at the mandibular ...

Mandibular third molars and angle fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2004
The study purpose was to measure associations between mandibular third molar (M3) status/position and risk for angle fracture.We designed a multicenter retrospective cohort study composed of patients who presented for operative management of mandible fractures. The primary predictor variable was M3 (present/absent). The secondary predictor variable was

Osteochondroma of the mandibular angle: Report of a case

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1996
Osteochondroma is most often observed near the ends of the long bones. 1,2 In the oral and maxillofacial region, cases of osteochondroma have been reported in the condyle or the coronoid process of the mandible. However, osteochondroma of other areas of the mandible is rare.

Biomechanical Analysis of Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2011
Clinical evidence has suggested that minimal fixation can reduce complications of mandibular angle fractures, though no detailed biomechanical model has yet explored this unique and somewhat unexpected finding.The current study uses finite element analysis to biomechanically evaluate different fixation schemes used to fixate mandibular angle fractures.

[The mandibular angle in the orthopantomogram].

Der Radiologe, 1985
In the orthopantomogram a reproducible determination of the gonial angle is possible. When comparing two orthopantomograms of the same patient, which were taken during routine clinical examination, a variation of the arithmetic mean of the gonial angle by 1 degrees was found. The value of the gonial angle measured in the orthopantomogram is 2.2 degrees

Changes in the mandibular angle in the edentulous state

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1988
Several textbooks of anatomy and at least one prosthodontic text make unsupported statements that the mandibular angle widens in the edentulous state. A search of the literature for support of those statements shows a disparity in conclusions on the subject.
