“…It is also a procedure of choice over the submandibular approach in bilateral unfavorable angle fractures, which helps in preventing damage to marginal mandibular nerve. This approach is usually employed because it results in less inconspiquous scar formation and allows direct visualization of the fracture site, confirmation of the occlusion status during placement of bone plates and relatively low risk of facial nerve injury [4,13,14].…”

“…Extraorally, a stab incision was given orienting the scalpel blade parallel to the relaxed resting skin tension lines (RSTL) for insertion of trans buccal trocar instrument based on the study conducted by Gulses et al [4]. The site for osteosynthesis was guided by placing index finger and marking it on the cheek.…”

“…No incidence of postoperative marginal mandibular nerve disturbance occurred in all the cases. The technique used to determine the zone for placement of the Trocar differed with the one proposed by Guilse et al in (2012) (33). They reported the safety zone as the region made by three lines at the angle of the mandible.…”

“…Safety zone for incision placement was evaluated and extra-oral stab incision was given and a peace of endotracheal tube no. 6.5 was cut and used to access through lateral side of mandible [3]. Tube was secured with 3-0 silk sutures.…”
