    The sagittal splitting technique for jaw alignment surgery shows superior results compared to horizontal ramus osteotomy. This method is preferred for treating mandibular prognathism, retrognathism, and laterognathism.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral Surgery
    • Orthognathic Surgery

    Background:

    • Mandibular deformities like prognathism, retrognathism, and laterognathism require effective surgical correction.
    • The Department of Oral Surgery in Boden has utilized various techniques for these conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of the sagittal splitting technique in treating jaw deformities.
    • To compare the sagittal splitting technique with the previously used horizontal ramus osteotomy.

    Main Methods:

    • The sagittal splitting technique was implemented in 12 cases.
    • Clinical outcomes were assessed over a 24-36 month follow-up period.

    Main Results:

    • The sagittal splitting technique demonstrated favorable treatment outcomes.
