Abstract

This article presents a modified palatal pedicled incision design in anterior segmental maxillary osteotomy. This method included the circumcrevicular incisions and two vertical relaxing incisions. Then, it is different from the Couper's method with vestibular horizontal incision and other anterior segmental osteotomy techniques. The main advantages of this method are an improved visibility of surgical field and favorable preservation of palatal pedicle. A patient who had been operated by anterior segmental maxillary and mandibular osteotomy without pre operative orthodontic treatment was analyzed for advantages and complications during the intraoperative and early post operative period. There are no specific major complications such as infection, gingival recession and dehiscence. And the patient had a pleasing esthetic facial appearance.
