“…The etiology of craniofacial fractures varies. Some authors believe that the most common cause of these fractures are transport accidents [31], while others mention violence [3,30,32]. The type and severity of the injury largely depends on the studied population [33].…”

Maxillofacial fractures (MFF) belong to the major modern medicine and public health concerns. The recovery from MFF is associated with a number of social problems. The patient’s mood may be affected by the change in self-image and lack of satisfaction with life, in many cases leading to a deepening of mental health disorders, resulting in alcoholism, loss of job or conflicts in the area of family life. The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of life of patients with MFF, with respect to demographic and medical variables. The mean age of the 227 patients was 36 years. The mandible was the most frequent MFF location (52.9%), followed by the zygomatic bone (30.8%) then the maxilla (16.3%). Bone fracture displacement occurred in 79.3% of patients. A comminuted fracture was found in 71% of patients. The quality of life of patients with MFF was significantly better in all analyzed domains 3 months after the end of hospitalization compared to the initial survey carried out shortly after implementation of the treatment. Among the demographic variables, older age had a statistically significant but weak positive association with the improvement of the quality of life of respondents in General health perception domain.

“…Management of maxillofacial trauma in the geriatric population poses a great challenge due to anatomical variations and medical comorbidities . Moreover, the frequency of old patients sustaining craniofacial trauma due to an increase in the aging population is leading to a progressive increase of importance of this topic in clinical maxillofacial practice …”

“…This study asserted that men are experiencing angular and condylar fractures in higher proportions than women with (4:1) Male to Female Ratio which is in a convergent path with other documented studies on mandibular fractures, in China (4.1:1) and Brazil (5.4:1). The given male to female ratio is a precise index to the risky activities that men usually involved in comparison to women 5,9,17 .…”

“…M3s as a research spot in relation to the fractures of the mandibular angle and condyle. The majority of these studies showed that the existence of lower M3 might influence the mandibular angular fractures while its absence may influence fractures toward the mandibular condyle [7][8][9][10] . However, their findings were discordant 11 .…”

This study aimed to analyze the relationship of the occlusal support together with the lower third molars to the mandibular fractures of the angle and condyle among patients in our medical institutions. This was a retrospective study that reviewed the medical records and radiographs of all patients treated for mandibular fractures from 2015 to 2019. The data collected by using picture archiving and communicating system. Only records with mandibular angle or condyle fractures were included. The dependent variable was the presence of the fractures of the mandibular angle or condyle. The independent variables were epidemiological data, third molar characteristics, existence or absence of occlusal support. The data was analyzed through Univariate logistic regression and multivariate logistic regression. From a total of 187 mandibular fractures, 44 presented mandibular angle fracture and 29 shown condyle fractures. The average age was 40.34 ± 13.47 years. The absence of occlusal support increased the chance of condyle fractures by 5.1 times (95% CI 1.61–17.29). The lack of occlusal support is more associated with condyle fractures than the presence of occlusal support, regardless of third molar presence and characteristics and other variables evaluated.
