Brief Summary  

Parasymphysis/body fractures of the mandible have reported to occur with a frequency of 9% to 57%. Therefore, a surgeon should have an appropriate understanding of the biomechanics of different plating systems and techniques used to fix these fractures. There is always a dilemma for the surgeon as to whether to fix these mandibular segments with one or two miniplates, and the presence of mental neurovascular bundle makes it more challenging. 

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of a newly designed twin-fork shaped miniplate for the fixation of fractures involving the parasymphysis-body transition region and to compare the same with the conventional single miniplates.

This randomised controlled trial will be done on 30 patients requiring fixation of fractures in the parasymphysis- body transition zone of the mandible. In group A, fixation is done using twinfork miniplates and in group B, single miniplates are used for fixation.
