Abstract
Complications related to teeth in the lines of mandibular fractures were studied in a retrospective review of 207 fractures; 32.3% resulted in some form of morbidity. Statiistical comparison of fractures in which teeth were removed and fractures in which teeth retained suggests that removal of teeth in fracture lines does not minimize morbidity.Entities:
