Mandibular fracture
Mandibular fracture, also known as fractures of the jaw, are breaks through the mandibular bone. They usually occur due to trauma and are often associated with other facial trauma.The types of mandibular fractures include fractures at the symphyseal area, horizontal ramus, mandibular angle and condylar neck.
