Abstract
The author investigated 30 patients who were selected requiring reduction and fixation of a fracture of the angle of the lower jaw. Patients were divided into 3 groups depending on the surgical access (for fracture of the angle of the lower jaw) used to fix the material. The results showed that, in the first group, intermaxillary fixations were removed 3 weeks after the operation, as a result of which the rehabilitation period lasted 4-5 weeks. In the patients of the second group, the maxillary fixation was removed 1 week after the operation, their rehabilitation period lasted 2-3 weeks, and in the third group of patients the maxillary fixation was not required, and the rehabilitation period lasted 7-10 days.
