Brief Summary   Mandible fractures are common in oral and maxillofacial surgery, often involving the body, angle, and condyle. Maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) is essential for stabilizing fractures and restoring function. Traditional MMF methods, like arch bars, have drawbacks, including tooth damage, poor oral hygiene, and discomfort. Newer alternatives, such as bone-anchored screws and orthodontic devices, offer faster application, increased comfort, and better oral hygiene with fewer complications. A prospective study will compare customized fixation devices to traditional arch bars in 30 patients, focusing on fixation stability, complications, patient satisfaction, and long-term effects, aiming to improve treatment outcomes and patient care
