SURGICAL TREATMENT OF MANDIBULAR CONDYLAR FRACTURES: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study was conducted with the aim of synthesizing and evaluating the outcomes of surgical treatment for mandibular condylar fractures using rigid fixation. The search strategy involved two electronic databases, PubMed and Embase (up to January 2023), to identify relevant documents meeting the following criteria: (1) evaluating the outcomes of surgical treatment for mandibular condylar fractures using bone fusion, (2) outcomes included at least one of the following criteria: mouth opening range (3) study designs included clinical trials, randomized control trial, cohort studies. A total of 13 articles were selected and included in the study. The results showed that 91.6% of the studies demonstrated that patients achieved a normal maximum mouth opening range, 66.7% of the studies reported successful restoration of proper occlusion for patients after a follow-up period of 6-12 months. The majority of patients included in the studies experienced pain symptoms immediately after surgery, and 100% of the studies indicated that there were no abnormal pain symptoms after 6 to 12 months.
