Abstract
A well understanding of the epidemiology of mandibular fracture and variables' correlations is clinically important in advancing the prediction, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mandibular fractures in a particular population. Potential risk factors such as trauma severity, compromised medical health, and patient's behaviors were significantly affecting the resultant outcome. Open reduction and internal fixation of condyle fracture resulted in constant occlusal result than closed one. An antibiotic therapeutic effect against infection in mandibular fractures remains suspected. Time elapsing from injury to treatment had no influence on the overall complications.
