Mandible fractures occur frequently, accounting for approximately 70% of all facial fractures. Of those, fractures of the mandibular condyle account for 25-35%.1,2 Over several decades, there has been much controversy over the standard treatment method for condylar fractures, with increasing support for open reduction internal fixation (ORIF). The aim of this study is to determine negative and positive factors that may influence radiographic reduction outcomes after ORIF of mandibular condylar fractures.
