简要总结
14 patients having recent anterior mandibular fracture divided into two groups. Group A has 6 patients and treated using Herbert bone screw, and group B has 6 patients and treated using lag screw.
Clinical follow-up was conducted after 24-hours, one, four, six, and twelve weeks. In addition, a radiographic investigation was performed after twelve weeks to estimate the mean bone density across the fracture line.
