note = "Although the mandible is the most commonly fractured facial bone, complications related to management are relatively infrequent despite an inhospitable milieu. This article will examine the major late complications involved in the care of mandibular fractures including problems with bony healing, infection, loss of teeth, malocculsion, residual facial deformities, nerve injuries, and resulting temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems. In addition, the various means to avoid their sequelae and methods of treatment when they occur will be described.",
