RTAs were the leading cause (45.2%), followed by interpersonal violence (25.2%) and falls (13.4%). The parasymphysis was the most common fracture site (41.5%), followed by the angle (33.6%) and condyle (17.1%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Mandibular fractures predominantly affect young males and are largely caused by RTAs.
