Abstract
This case report is the management of mandibular symphysial and condylar fracture in a 17?month?old girl. A 17-month-old girl was brought to the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Kyung Hee University Dental Hospital at Gangdong, Seoul, Korea with a history of a fall from a chair last night. The clinical and radiological examination showed right condyle head fracture and mandibular symphysis fracture between lower central right and left incisors. Under general anesthesia, the mandibular symphysis fracture was reduced and stabilized a prefabricated acrylic splint with circum?mandibular wiring. The splint and wiring were removed after 3 weeks. Although the facial asymmetry was observed after 2 year follow?up, there were no malocclusion and temporo?mandibular joint problems. When mandibular fractures occur in young age, the affected children may have an increased risk of growth disturbances. Mouth guard could prevent injuries of teeth, soft tissue, and jaws from trauma. The clinicians should emphasize the importance and advantages of a mouth guard to young patients with sport activities to decrease an extent of injuries.
