Abstract

Aim: To demonstrate the validity of conventional CT and reconstructed 3DCT in assessment of mandibular fractures. A total of 14 mandibular fractures sustained by 10 patients were evaluated in the current work. All cases were males with ages ranging between 30-50 years. Patients were all assessed by 2DCT and reconstructed CT after compiling detailed history as well as thorough physical examination. The present study strengthens the role of the 3D-CT technique as a supplementary technique to the 2D-CT in the assessment of the mandibular fractures. 3DCT imaging has proved its validity as an exquisite tool in providing higher sensitivity in anatomic localization of mandibular fractures, in detecting comminution and bone displacement.
