Abstract

Sagittal split osteotomy (SSRO)is an indispensable and most popular operation for correction of mandibular deformity.The procedure was considered of bony contact surface and nerve injury in the early stage. The procedure has undergone continuous surgical modifications for condylar displacement, relapse, psychologic analysis, functional and esthetic improvement, fixation method and postoperative evaluation of soft tissue change over time. In this article, we compared the contemporary operation method with new method which was designed through ramal computed tomography. Now we are going to introduce novel conceptual SSRO namely CNUSSRO designed by Chonbuk National University and suggest the standardization of pre-existed SSRO.
