Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Locking miniplate

The fractured segments in the parasymphyseal region will be fixed using 2.0 single locking miniplates and the fractured segments of the angle will be fixed conventionally using 2.0 single non-locking miniplate placed on the external oblique ridge.

Procedure: 2.0 single locking miniplates
The fractured segments in the parasymphyseal region will be fixed using 2.0 single locking miniplates placed on the inferior border of the mandible.

Experimental: Non-locking miniplates

The fractured segments in the parasymphyseal region will be fixed using 2.0 two non-locking miniplates and the fractured segments of the angle will be fixed conventionally using 2.0 single non-locking miniplate placed on the external oblique ridge.

Procedure: 2.0 single locking miniplates
The fractured segments in the parasymphyseal region will be fixed using 2.0 single locking miniplates placed on the inferior border of the mandible.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Biting force [6 months]

    Biting force will be measured using occlusal biting force meter (Higher biting force record is better)

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Stability of fractured segments [6 weeks]

    Bi-manual manipulation (Binary Yes/No)

  2. Pain intensity [10 days]

    Visual analog scale (0-10) 0=No pain & 10=Severe pain

  3. Occlusion [6 months]

    Clinical examination (Intact/Deranged)

  4. Infection [6 months]

    Clinical examination (Present/Absent)

  5. Hardware failure [6 months]

    Clinical examination (Present/Absent)

  6. Paraesthesia [6 months]

    Observation/Contact detection/Pin-brick nociception (0-10) 0=No sensation & 10= Normal sensation

  7. Wound dehiscence [6 months]

    Clinical examination (Present/Absent)
