[Optimizing therapeutic methods in mandibular fractures].
The authors present various methods for immobilizing mandibular fractures, stressing their advantages and disadvantages. They describe modern surgical methods used in immobilizing these fractures, considering methods employed in stable, functional osteosynthesis that have improved indications for surgical therapy, and that have made obsolete intermaxillary immobilization. These methods are more acceptable for the patient because they allow for a completely normal diet, as well as the maintenance of a normal hygiene in the buccal cavity. Evolution of the recovery is more easily followed, and in case of complications interventions are easily carried out in a short time. The presence of functional stimuli enhances the development of a good callus, and the full recovery is shortened by 2-3 weeks.
