Abstract
Maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) is a treatment option for mandibular fractures. Various techniques can be used for MMF which include arch bars, eyelets, and intermaxillary fixation (IMF) screws. When a patient undergoing orthodontic treatment experiences a mandible fracture, conventional MMF wiring techniques cannot be employed without removal of the existing orthodontic brackets. In such cases, the existing orthodontic brackets can be utilized for MMF. To the best of the author's knowledge, this is the first documented case in the literature where a mandible fracture in a patient undergoing orthodontic treatment was treated using the existing orthodontic brackets for MMF.
