The treatment of mandibular fractures has created a large number of conversation and dispute in maxillofacial accidental cases and there are a lot of techniques to treat them. Condylar fracture can be extracapsular or intracapsular, displaced, deviated, displaced or dislocated. The management of condylar fracture can be done by conventional management using closed treatment or surgical management with open approach. Most surgeons look for closed treatment. Yet open reduction of condylar fracture with RIF has become increasingly popular in recent years. The management of mandibular condylar fracture can be considered by the patient's age, the presence of upper and lower jaw fracture, if the condylar fracture is unilateral or bilateral, the stage and movement of the fracture, the dentition status and occlusion of tooth.
