We evaluated 78 patients who had intermaxillary fixation (IMF) of fractured mandibular condyles with arch bars and wires. Depending on whether the wires were bent apically or occlusally during placement of the arch bars, we randomly divided the patients into two groups (n=39 in each), then compared pain, satisfaction with oral hygiene, and complications between the groups at five to six weeks postoperatively when the arch bars were removed. Outcomes were significantly better in the occlusal group than in the apical group.
我们评估了78例使用牙弓夹板和金属丝进行下颌骨髁突骨折颌间固定（IMF）的患者。根据在放置牙弓夹板时金属丝是向根尖方向还是向咬合面弯曲，我们将患者随机分为两组（每组n = 39），然后在术后五至六周拆除牙弓夹板时，比较两组之间的疼痛、口腔卫生满意度和并发症情况。咬合面组的结果明显优于根尖组。
