    TYPE OF FRACTURE

    1) Simple Linear fracture: lines which do not communicate with the exterior.
    2) Compound fracture: The fracture is communicating intraorally or
    extraorally
    3) Communited fracture: Shattering of bone into multiple pieces
    4) Complex fracture: They is adjunct injury to the adjacent nerves or major
    blood vessels
    5) Impact frcture: One fragment is firmly driven within the other fragment
    and clinical movement not appreciate
    6) Greenstick fracture Only one cortex broken. Common in children

    7) Pathological fracture: Spontaneous fracture as a result of normal muscle


    SITE OF FRACTURE

    1) Dentoalveolar
    2) Condyle
    3) Coronoid
    4) Ramus
    5) Angle
    6) Body (molar and premolar areas)
    7) Parasymphysis
    8) Symphysi
    CAUSE OF FRACTURE

    1) Direct violence
    2) Indirect violence
    3) Excessive muscular contraction: Fracture of the coronoid process
    because of sudden reflex contracture of the temporalis muscle

    EPIDEMIOLOGY
     The mandible is one of the most commonly fractured bones of the
    face and this is directly related to its prominent and exposed position.
     Oikarinen and Lindqvist (1975) studied 729 patients with multiple
    injuries sustained in RTA. The most common facial fractures were in
    the mandible.
     Mandible (61%) Maxilla (46%) Zygoma(27%) Nasal Bone (19%)
