Evaluation of the Efficay of Computer Guided Lag Screw Fixation in Comparison to Conventional Lag Screw Fixation in Anterior Mandibular Fractures. Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT)

Background and Objective: This study aimed to compare the use of computer guided technology to placelag screws in anterior mandibular fracture in comparison to convectional techniqueMaterials and Method: This study included twenty-six patients divided into two equal groups, wherefixation in group A utilized computer guided patient specific guide to fix anterior mandibular fractures usinglag screws. In group B anterior mandibular fractures were fixed using lag screws in the conventional way.Both groups were compared in terms of stability and the need of auxiliary fixation devices.Results: Both techniques showed uneventful healing and showing insignificant difference between themconcerning stability and the need for auxiliary fixation device.Conclusion: Although the use of computer guided technology didn’t offer significant advantage over theconventional technique yet it provides more easy and reliable way especially for beginners introduced tothe technique.
