This study will evaluate the patient specific surgical stent and plate for guided reduction and fixation of mandibular angle fractures.
seven patients with recent mandibular angle fractures indicated for open reduction and internal fixation were treated by patient specific surgical stent and plate for guided reduction and fixation of mandibular angle fractures. Follow-up extended to 12 weeks. Clinical parameters included pain, operative time, postoperative occlusion, wound healing and mouth opening. Radiographic evaluation was conducted using computed tomography scans acquired preoperatively and postoperatively ,superimposition of the pre and postoperative models will be done to create error map and measure the accuracy
