Fixation of Mandibular Angle Fracture Using 3D Titanium Miniplate Versus Standard Two Plate Fixation
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
Hypothesis The investigators hypothesis that fixation of mandibular angle fractures using a 3D titanium miniplate will provide better occlusal bite force than intraoral fixation using the standard two-plate technique. The investigators expect that this method will facilitate a faster recovery time for participants to regain baseline occlusion force.

Interventions
Two Standard Plate Fixation
Fixation using two titanium miniplates. One plate at the inferior border of the mandible with bicortical screws. Second plate \~5 mm above or at the external oblique ridge with monocortical screws.
3D Titanium Miniplate (2.0 mm, 8-hole).
Single 2.0 mm 9-hole 3D titanium plate fixed with monocortical screws. Plate contoured with horizontal crossbars perpendicular and vertical struts parallel to fracture line. Screws placed diagonally first.
