title: [The functional therapy of condylar fractures: a kinesiographic follow-up].
abstract: Mandibular condylar fractures are frequent traumatic events which, if not properly treated, can develop dysfunctional and degenerative aspects. The treatment has the two goals of maintaining the correct mandibular movements and of sustaining the potential of condylar growth in young patients. The CMS (Computerized Mandibular Scanner) analysis showed the efficacy of functional therapy in condylar fractures.
