Evaluation and Correlation of Subjective and Objective Neurosensory Recovery Following Skeletonization of the Mental Nerve in Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of Mandible Fractures

Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of mandible fractures may require manipulation of the mental nerve to facilitate osseous reduction and plate fixation, which may lead to prolonged or permanent paresthesia. The aim of this study was to evaluate and correlate the subjective and objective neurosensory recovery of the mental nerve following skeletonization in ORIF of mandible fractures.
