Background: Orthognathic surgery is widely used surgical procedure. The most common orthognathic procedure bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) that for managing skeletal mandibular excess, deficiency or asymmetry. Objective: To correct functional and aesthetic problems. Patients Methods: A total of (12 patients) 24 condyles have been included in our study all with cl II malocclusion, open...

Methods: Thirty-two patients undergoing primary deepplane rhytidectomy participated. Each hemiface in all patients was submitted sequentially to 3 progressively more extensive lifts, while other variables were standardized. Four major outcome measures were studied, including the extent of skin redundancy and the repositioning of soft tissues along the malar, mandibular, and cervical vectors of ...

INTRODUCTION Accessing the tooth roots in periapical surgery (PS) requires the elimination of periapical bone. OBJECTIVE To compare the postoperative morbidity and prognosis following PS on mandibular molars by ostectomy, or by osteotomy with repositioning of the vestibular cortical. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective clinical study of mandibular molars subjected to PS with ultrasound. Tw...

In adults, superior repositioning of posterior maxilla with or without mandibular surgery has become the treatment method of choice to close anterior open bite. Study aim was to examine the long-term stability of anterior open bite closure by superior repositioning of maxilla or by combining maxillary impaction with mandibular surgery. The sample comprised 24 patients who underwent anterior ope...

Adult patients who have vertical maxillary excess usually are candidates for superior repositioning of the maxilla (SRM). In proportion to the amount of SRM, the mandible autorotates forward and upward. It is necessary for clinicians to predict the changes in mandibular landmarks following surgery. A new method is presented in this article with which one can calculate the horizontal and vertica...

Anaplastology ISSN: 2161-1173 Anaplastology, an open access journal Volume 2 • Issue 5 • 1000121 Today 3DM and RP techniques are widely employed to support planning in different types of surgery especially involving mandible malformation or defects such as bilateral sagittal split osteotomies [5] or chin repositioning by pre-bending titanium plates on the printed model [6]. RP models have also ...

Positioning of the head during posterior cervical decompression and fusion requires invasive techniques (eg, pins placed through the skull) and manual repositioning intraoperatively. This article describes a new technique with a noninvasive device for such positioning. From February 2005 until June 2010 at our institution, 94 patients underwent posterior cervical decompression and fusion with i...

Purpose: This study was carried out to assess treatment outcomes of Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device (FFRD) used in correction skeletal Class II malocclusion through lateral cephalometric analysis. Subjects and methods: The conducted on ten male patients. Treatment followed leveling alignment till heavy 0.019 x 0.025-inch stainless steel archwires reached, then FFRD inserted. protocol ended when...
