Objectives: To compare the outcome of intra oral and extra oral approaches for mandibular
angle fracture reduction and fi xation.
Materials and Methods: This Randomized Clinical Trial. was conducted at Oral and Maxillofacial surgery at Khyber College of Dentistry.Data of 110 diagnosed cases of fracture angle region
of the mandible Presented at the Khyber college of Dentistry Peshawar KPK Pakistan, over a
minimum of 6 months period were obtained.
Results: A total of 110 patients with 55 patients in group A (extra oral approach) and 55 in group
B ( intra oral approach) were included. The age of patients presented with Angle fracture ranged
from 11-60 years with mean age 39 years and SD + 1.089. Comparison of malocclusion between
extra oral and intra oral approach shows insignifi cant results, whereas post-operative infection
was common in extra orally than intra orally. Also the post facial nerve damage was more extra
orally than intra oral approach.
Conclusion: Tthere is no signifi cant diff erence in outcome of intra oral and extra oral approaches
for mandibular angle fracture reduction and fi xation. However facial nerve damaged was more
in extraoral approach.
