This study aims to assess the outcomes of mandibular fractures treated through surgical stabilization using plates and screws, focusing on factors such as postoperative complications, patient satisfaction, and functional recovery. A total of 42 patients were included in the study. Surgical interventions involved the application of plates and screws at the fracture sites. Postoperative complications, including infection, hardware failure, and malocclusion, were recorded. Surgical stabilization of mandibular fractures using plates and screws demonstrates favorable outcomes in terms of stability, occlusal alignment, and patient satisfaction. The findings of this study contribute valuable insights into the efficacy of this surgical approach, highlighting its role in achieving successful outcomes for mandibular fracture management. Further prospective studies and randomized controlled trials are recommended to strengthen the evidence base and refine treatment protocols.
本研究旨在评估使用钢板和螺钉进行手术固定治疗下颌骨骨折的效果，重点关注术后并发症、患者满意度和功能恢复等因素。共有42例患者纳入本研究。手术干预包括在骨折部位应用钢板和螺钉。记录术后并发症，包括感染、内固定失败和咬合不正。使用钢板和螺钉对下颌骨骨折进行手术固定在稳定性、咬合对齐和患者满意度方面显示出良好的效果。本研究结果为这种手术方法的疗效提供了有价值的见解，突出了其在下颌骨骨折治疗取得成功结果中的作用。建议进一步开展前瞻性研究和随机对照试验，以加强证据基础并完善治疗方案。
