Study on Condylar Position Changes in Non-Surgically Treated Mandibular Condylar Fractures

Posted: December 27, 2024
A study investigated condylar position changes in non-surgically treated unilateral mandibular condylar fracture patients. Results showed significant recovery in condyle head position post-treatment, with lateral and superior recovery more prominent in under 19-year-olds. Factors influencing recovery included age, with favorable functional prognosis across all age groups. Complications post-treatment included TMD, malocclusion, and facial asymmetry. Non-surgical treatment is considered a viable option for mandibular condylar fractures.
