Abstract
The anatomical characteristics and the cortico-cancellous nature of bone disrupted by the presence of teeth make the mandible more vulnerable to fractures during traumatic injuries of the face. Fractures of the angle region constitute about 30% of mandibular fractures due to the change in dentate bone to the lateral flare of ramus, change in grain pattern of the bone, and presence of third molars all weakening the region making it fragile and thus fracture. Several studies corroborated the effectiveness of Champy's technique as to have the lowest complication rate when compared to the other techniques. Though a well-sequenced procedure, fixing an angle fracture is practically challenging and here we describe our experience, with a modification of the sequence to aid in better surgical outcome.
