Types of Osteotomies in the Maxilla

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterAcademic

Abstract

Corrections of the bite position in skeletal malformations or esthetic corrections with the aid of the skeleton can only be achieved by osteotomies and relocation of bone and soft tissue components. The nomenclature of common osteotomies must be clearly understood. They can be applied individually, in combination, and in both jaws.
