Management of MAF has evolved in the past four decades. The purpose of the prospective study was to compare the efficacy of new design titanium miniplate (NDM) with conventional titanium miniplate (CTM) in the treatment of MAF.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Mouth opening, occlusion, bite force measurement, and radiographs compared preoperatively and first week, first month and third month postoperatively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Method:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fourteen patients diagnosed with MAF were randomly divided into two groups: Group A (seven patients) was treated with NDM and Group B (seven patients) with CTM.

NDM offers better stability, rigidity, and anatomic reduction of the fracture with a drawback of difficulty in adaptation and increased operative timing compared to CTM. Hence, we would like to conclude that both miniplates are equally efficient in the treatment of non-comminuted angle fractures with the NDM having upper hand in stability.<\/jats:p>\n
