Transbuccal With Transoral Versus Transoral-Only Approach for Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of Mandibular Angle Fractures: A Prospective Study
Both approaches ensured excellent stability and alignment, but the transbuccal with transoral approach offered superior occlusal outcomes and minimal scarring, despite longer surgical times, making it preferable for complex fractures. The transoral approach, with shorter duration and no external scarring, is suitable for patients who prioritize aesthetics.
