- Abstract
The mandible is the most common fractured bone of the facial skeleton. The aim of the study is to make an analysis mainly regarding the two options of treatment, the surgical and non-surgical methods. The study included all 65 patients (mean age 32.08±15.024 years) who were treated for mandible fractures within Timisoara's Department of Maxillofacial Surgery in 2013. Considering the current social and economical context we thought that a cost analysis of the two methods of treatment is useful. We took in consideration the days of hospitalization and the hospitalization cost.
