Abstract
Introduction: The management of mandibular fractures has evolved from closed reduction to open reduction. Champy’s miniplates have become highly popular and is a time-tested method of treatment of mandibular fractures. However, advances like 3D miniplate with claimed advantages like requires less armamentarium, providing better occlusal stability
Materials and Methods: Evaluative study conducted in 24 patients & randomly divided in 2 groups, use of 3D miniplate vs conventional miniplates in anterior mandibular fractures, age group 15-90, post-operative evaluation at day 1, 7 & 3 month, fracture stability, mobility of fracture fragment, complications & bite force.
Result: The level of significance was fixed at 5% and p ? 0.05 was considered statistically significant. 3D mini plating system (p value:- .001)have lesser operating time when compared to 2D conventional miniplating system, also 3D miniplate system have better intraoperative and lesser complications, significantly better bite force results (p value .002*(s)) with 3D miniplate compared to 2D conventional miniplating system.
Conclusion: 3D miniplate a novel form of plating system with better intraoperative and post operative results, better stability compared to conventional miniplating system.
