Question

If there is a distance of 1 mm between broken pieces of a jaw bone, will they join or not?

Answer 1

Yes they will as long as the bone is aligned, however the area may need to be stabilized by wires or pins and plates until it does, it depends on the severity and how much movement or free play the bones have.
