Abstract

Aim and Objective: This study is Clinical and radiographic evaluation of 3D miniplate and 2D miniplate fixation in the management of isolated mandibular fractures - A comparative study. 1. Advantages. 2. Treatment outcome. 3. Stability. 4. Comparison of drawbacks of two different plating system in the management of isolated mandibular fractures.

Materials and Method: The present study was to evaluate the comparison of 2mm 3D titanium miniplates with 2 mm 2D titanium miniplates in isolated mandibular fractures. This study was conducted for the period of September 2018 to September 2020 at the Department of Maxillofacial surgery, College of Dental Sciences, Davanagere. Patient who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were treated by open - reduction and internal fixation using 2 mm 3D titanium miniplates and 2 mm 2D titanium miniplates with 2 mm X 8 mm or 2 mm X 6 mm length monocortical screws. Post-operatively patients were assessed for Presence or absence of infection, swelling or local inflammation, mal union/Fibrous union, Implant failure, postoperative mobility at fracture site. Post-operatively fracture healing assessed using digital orthpantamograph and was compared between 2 mm titanium 2D miniplate and 2 mm 3D miniplate.

Results: In our study radiological assessment was done by measuring maximum distance between two fracture segments were obtained using annova test, in respective pre-operative and post-operative radiographic views. The maximum distance between two fractures segments in isolated mandibular fractures were assessed in orthopantamograph using vernier calliper. An outstanding Difference was noted between two plating systems used in treatment protocol. 2 mm 3Dimensional miniplate has higher significance when compared to the 2 mm conventional miniplate system. Also, clinical assessment was done with post-operative mobility, infection, Malunion/Non-union and hardware loosening showed 3D plates have better outcome than 2D Miniplates.
