턱끝성형술 Genioplasty

[BACKGROUND] Facial feminization surgery encompasses a group of procedures, including frontal sinus setback, genioplasty, and gonial angle reduction, that are used to increase concordance between gender identity and physical appearance. Vir…

Orthognathic surgery is widely used to correct dentofacial deformities. Recent advancements in virtual surgical planning have enhanced the precision of these procedures. However, ensuring the surgical outcome reflects the virtual plan remai…

[BACKGROUND] Genioplasty and chin-augmentation are well-established procedures aimed at enhancing lower facial aesthetics. Traditionally, aesthetic outcomes have been assessed subjectively through expert opinions and patient-reported measur…

[BACKGROUND] Relative chin prominence is commonly observed in certain Class II malocclusion morphotypes, particularly in deep bite and Class II Division 2 patterns. Despite mandibular retrusion, soft tissue volume and anterior mandibular ro…

[BACKGROUND] Chin augmentation is increasingly performed using both surgical (osseous genioplasty and alloplastic implants) and non-surgical (injectable fillers) techniques to improve facial harmony and profile. However, the long-term effec…

Patients with chin deficiency secondary to dentofacial deformity often present with aesthetic and functional complaints. Treatment of such deficiencies with conventional genioplasty may be limited when broader modification of the mandibular…

[OBJECTIVE] Alveolar bone augmentation with corticotomy is commonly used in orthodontic treatment for patients with insufficient alveolar bone, which can increase the amount of alveolar bone, facilitate and accelerate tooth movement. Howeve…

Silicone chin implants have been widely used is plastic and esthetic surgery of the face being considered as safe and efficient way for chin augmentation. However, complications such as bone resorption, displacement or ectopic bone formatio…

Mandibular symphysis segmentation for the correction of transverse deformities has been recently described in the literature, highlighting its potential in the management of dentofacial deformities. However, the use of osteosynthesis system…

The Chin Wing osteotomy represents a choice of alternative genioplasty, well described in literature but until today slightly used, mainly due to the greater risk of damage to the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) related compared to the classi…

Recent advancements in orthognathic surgery have introduced innovations in surgical techniques and in preoperative and postoperative care, with an increasing emphasis on patient-centered approaches. Our study described the current practice …

[BACKGROUND] The success of virtual surgical planning (VSP) in bimaxillary orthognathic surgery relies on the precise translation of digital plans into operative outcomes. Although computer-assisted design and 3D-printed surgical guides are…

Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) is a corrective jaw surgery that repositions the mandible. Potential complications include unexpected fractures, unfavorable splits, avascular necrosis, condylar resorption, and malposition of the p…

Single-stage facial feminization surgery (FFS) offers a unique opportunity for intraoperative access to nearly every tissue type used for grafting in plastic surgery, opening the possibilities for creative repurposing of autologous tissues.…

Despite lower reported accuracy of genioplasty osteotomies, significant variation exists in the accuracy analysis techniques, without full validation. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of surface-based registration (SBR)…

[BACKGROUND] The effect of aesthetic osseous genioplasty on upper airway volume remains unclear, particularly the relative contributions of horizontal and vertical chin changes. [METHODS] We retrospectively analyzed volumetric airway chang…

Aesthetic motivations have increasingly guided patient decisions in orthognathic surgery, particularly in private practice. This study presents descriptive observations from a single private practice, with a focus on patient motivations, su…

This retrospective study was performed to evaluate the effect of maxillomandibular surgery on upper airway volumes and hyoid bone positioning in patients with Class III skeletal deformities, treated with maxillary advancement and mandibular…

[BACKGROUND] Sagittal split osteotomy (SSO) is widely performed for mandibular repositioning; however, inferior alveolar nerve injury may result in persistent neurosensory disturbance (NSD) that affects quality of life. The true 1-year inci…

[OBJECTIVE] To assess clinical outcomes of the surgery-early approach in managing skeletal Class II malocclusion and mandibular deviation. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] A 21-year-old female underwent staged treatment: (1) limited presurgical ort…
