Abstract:
In a patient with a long face, skeletal open bite and excessive mandibular body length, it was found that the sagittal split ramus osteotomy to close the open bite was unstable, when the lower jaw alone was a moved surgically to correct the open bite and progenie. There was a slight relapse of the open bite and lingual compensation of the upper incisors, which may have been due to tissue rebound during the retention period.
