Nasal Spine Suspension for Reduction and Immobilization of Mandibular Fractures

Successful treatment of mandibular fractures involves proper fracture reduction and immobilization for an adequate length of time. A simple wire fixation technique that can be used in many situations involves suspension wiring from the base of the anterior nasal spine to a pair of circummandibular wires. The technique may be used alone or adjunctively with other methods of fixation. It offers several advantages over other methods, particularly in the treatment of pediatric mandibular fractures.
