Abstract

ABSTRACTUnderstanding the repercussions of facial trauma on subsequent growth and the aftermath of the various methods of treating pediatric facial fractures is not something that those who treat adults have to take into account. Young bone possesses unique physical properties that coupled with the space-occupying developing dentition give rise to patterns of fracture not seen in adults. This results in a need for different forms of fixation for shorter periods of time. This case report documents trauma and follow-up care of a 4-year-old patient with mandibular fracture.How to cite this articleKumar N, Kumar A, Syreen S, Singh S.
