Functional appliance treatment for bilateral condylar fracture in a pediatric patient.

Abstract:

:Trauma to the mandible may cause condylar fracture (CF). The prevalence of CF in children is low and treatment must focus on possible long-term effects on the growing facial skeleton and soft tissues. Consequences may include functional disturbances, facial asymmetry, mandibular retrusion, temporomandibular joint dysfunction and ankylosis. Conservative treatment, including close observation, soft diet, physiotherapy, and functional appliances, is advised in most cases. The purpose of this report was to describe the case of a pediatric female patient with bilateral condylar fracture. Treatment consisted of physiotherapy and hybrid functional appliances. Satisfactory remodeling of both condyles occurred and normal occlusion and jaw movements were obtained. Close monitoring will continue throughout the 6-year follow-up period and completion of growth. The conservative treatment approach proved successful in this case.
