Abstract:

Bone healing complications following jaw fractures can markedly impair facial morphology and oral function and are often difficult to manage. This review summarizes the definition and risk factors of bone healing complications in jaw fractures, with a particular focus on comprehensive management principles for different healing patterns. Treatment strategies for special fracture types are also discussed, along with recent advances in adjuvant biological therapies and physical stimulation modalities relevant to clinical practice.

Key words: jaw fracture, fracture healing, digital surgical technique, bone morphogenetic proteins
