文摘
IntroductionSurgical correction of the patients with mandibular asymmetry by bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) creats remarkable results in the immediate post operative period, but it carries a high risk of relapse by powerful muscle forces and the osteotomized segments. To minimize this risk, literatures highlight the procedure of an intentional osteotomy and stripping of muscles. A prospective study was conducted in Government Dental College, Kottayam, Kerala, to assess the effect of intentional osteotomy of posterior part of distal segment and stripping of medial pterygoid muscle on the proximal segment on affected side in mandibular asymmetry patients treated with BSSRO.
