Chin wing genioplasty enhances facial aesthetics and function by treating the mandibular basilar border as a unit. This advanced technique offers improved harmonious results compared to classical genioplasty.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Aesthetic Surgery

Background:

  • Morphological abnormalities of the chin can be addressed with genioplasty.
  • Classical genioplasty techniques have limitations.
  • The "chin wing" technique offers an extended approach to genioplasty.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the chin wing genioplasty technique.
  • To evaluate its potential for improved functional and aesthetic outcomes.
  • To highlight its anatomical considerations.

Main Methods:

  • Preoperative assessment using Cone Beam CT to locate the inferior alveolar nerve.
  • Surgical procedure under general anesthesia with specific osteotomy modifications.
  • Protection of mental nerves and use of bone grafts with a symphysary plate.
Keywords:

Main Results:

  • The chin wing technique considers the entire mandibular basilar border as an anatomical unit.
  • It allows for improved harmonious functional and aesthetic results.
  • The technique can be performed independently of other bone modification procedures.

Conclusions:

  • Chin wing genioplasty offers significant functional and aesthetic facial improvements.
  • It represents a challenging yet effective advancement in genioplasty.
  • Further adoption may be limited by its technical complexity.
