Mandibular fractures are the most common trauma cases that we often come across in our day-to-day practice of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Various factors can lead to deformities and make those cases more challenging, which includes a delay in surgical treatment, resulting in non-union or malunion of the fracture site causing occlusal disturbances and functional abnormalities in the temporomandibular joint.
Keywords: asymmetry; callus; corrective osteotomy; malocclusion; malunion; mandibular fracture; open reduction; post traumatic residual deformity; refracture; secondary deformities.
