Currently, active developments of new methods are carried out in various fields of medicine, including dentistry. Despite the increase of medical care quality, injuries in the maxillofacial area continue to be a pressing problem. One of the most difficult tasks faced by maxillofacial surgeons in everyday practice is the selection of the optimal surgical treatment method for the patients with facial skull fractures, as well as the rational use of various types of fixation. Due to the untimely treatment of injured persons, inadequate diagnosis of this type of pathology, as well as errors in the implementation of preoperative planning and osteosynthesis, the percentage of adverse outcomes remains high. The article presents a clinical case of treating a patient with mandible angle fracture with the use of titanium nickelide brackets with shape memory.

Key words: mandible, fracture, osteosynthesis, shape memory constructions, titanium nickelide The authors declare no conflict of interest. Source of financing: not specified.
