Özet

Mandibular fractures are rarely encountered among the pediatric population, and when they do present, their clinical features differ from those in adults. This retrospective study looked at the age, sex, type and cause of fracture, treatment method and associated injuries and complications in 260 cases of mandibular fracture in children under age 16. Among the most significant findings: Fracture incidence had a 3:5 male:female ratio; 52% of all mandibular fractures involved condyle/subcondyle fractures and 50.7% involved symphysis/parasymphysis fractures; the most common treatment method was intermaxillary fixation; in no cases were severe complications observed during the healing period.
