[Indications for treatment of mandibular fractures in the adult].
From the many kinds of treatment which are indicated in the literature, the authors selected for presentation those methods which have proved useful at the Rostock University Clinic and Policlinic of Stomatology, during many years, in managing mandibular fractures, their indications being precisely established. The therapeutical measures still centre on conservative methods, modern operation techniques being optimal complements. If surgical management of the fracture is necessary, a stable osteosynthesis technique should be used on principle, condylar process fractures being excepted.
