Mandibular fracture refers to a break in the lower jawbone. Treatment options for mandibular fractures include wiring the jaw shut or using metal plates and screws to hold the broken bones in place.

Mandibular Fracture – Wiring and Plating PPT Summary
- There are several different wiring techniques for stabilizing mandibular fractures, including Essig’s wiring, Gilmer’s wiring, Risdon’s wiring, and Ivy eyelet wiring.
- Transosseous wiring can be done through an intraoral or extraoral approach and involves drilling holes in the bony fragments and passing a wire through them.
- Bone plating using simple noncompression bone plates or miniplates is another method for mandibular fracture fixation.
- Compression plates with pear-shaped holes are used to overcome the tendency for the upper border and lingual plate to open up during tightening of screws.
- Reconstruction plates are useful for comminuted fractures, defect fractures, and severely displaced angle fractures.
