Mandibular condyle remodeling and joint space after open reduction and internal fixation of mandibular parasymphysis and angle fractures: a retrospective study
TMJ remodeling after ORIF varies by fracture type. Isolated parasymphysis fractures caused significant increases in condylar volume and height. Angle fractures involvement showed greater sagittal positional. These results highlight the impact of fracture location and mechanical force distribution on adaptive remodeling.
