AB  - Treatment of mandibular fractures by open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) 
      is often assumed to be superior to treatment by close reduction and 
      maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) because patients managed by ORIF seem to be 
      rehabilitated earlier according to functional and social aspects. This assumption 
      is often from surgeon's perspective, not taking into account patient's view 
      point. This study highlights a comparative assessment between ORIF and MMF from 
      the patients' perspective. Fifty six patients with mandibular fractures within 
      the tooth bearing areas of the mandible were prospectively studied in a 
      randomized controlled pattern for postoperative Quality of Life (QoL) after ORIF 
      versus MMF. Both groups were analyzed preoperatively, at 1 day, 6 and 8 weeks 
      regarding their QoL using the General Oral Health Assessment Index questionnaire 
      (GOHAI). No significant statistical difference was found between the groups 
      regarding overall QoL. Patients managed by MMF were more affected by psychosocial 
      and physical domains whereas patients managed by ORIF were more affected by the 
      pain domain. The results demonstrate that the treatment affects the psychosocial, 
      physical and pain domain differentially. When both treatments are possible the 
      patient's should be enlightened on the advantages and disadvantages of both 
      treatment modalities to guide their choice of treatment.
