Abstract:
A retrospective study on 2149 patients with the maxillo facial fracture in the Institute of facio-maxillodentology during 1988- 1998 has shown that the morbidity rate in men was higher than this in women. The patients with ages of 20 -40 accounted for 65%. 40% of patients were at ages of 20 -29. The mandibular fracture accounted for 64%. The treatment mainly involved the reconstruction and the bone cooperation by steel thread with the good results (85.3%).
