title: A rational approach to the mandibular parasymphyseal fracture.
abstract: Facial scarring is avoided when a transoral degloving approach is used for treatment of parasymphyseal fractures. Complete visualization of the fracture line before and after the reduction is an added advantage of this safe, rapid, and technically easy approach. In patients with both parasymphyseal and condylar fractures, Risdon wires can also be used.
