Various surgical approaches and their complications can be done to check the outcome measurement for displaced type of Zygomatico-Maxillary Complex (ZMC) fractures & long term follow up. &Objectives: This case presentation are to check the treatment outcome of zygomatic fractures after treatment with Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) using 2 point fixation technique. &Case Report: Patient reported to the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery at Swargiya Dadasaheb Kalmegh Smruti Dental College & Hospital, Nagpur with chief complaints of pain & swelling over right side of face with Periorbital edema & Subconjuctival hemorrhage. On investigation it was diagnosed as Unilateral Displaced ZMC Fractured which was treated with Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) using two-point fixation technique. &Conclusion: We found that postoperative facial & neurological complications are minimum in two point fixation technique. Open reduction and internal fixation using two-point fixation by miniplates is sufficient for reduction of fracture & postoperative stability at the fracture site and minimize the chance of postoperative complications.
