- Contra-lateral unfavorable non-comminuted simple or compound mandibular fracture in the parasymphyseal and angle regions.
- Fractures amenable to treatment using intra oral approach.
- Medically compromised patients who are unfit for the procedure under general anesthesia.
- Patients with comminuted fractures.

Pain intensity 10 days Visual analog scale (0-10) 0=No pain \& 10=Severe pain
Wound dehiscence 6 months Clinical examination (Present/Absent)
Occlusion 6 months Clinical examination (Intact/Deranged)
Infection 6 months Clinical examination (Present/Absent)
Paraesthesia 6 months Observation/Contact detection/Pin-brick nociception (0-10) 0=No sensation \& 10= Normal sensation
Hardware failure 6 months Clinical examination (Present/Absent)
