“…For the osteoplastic chin procedures, two incision types were in use: a high-labial curvilinear incision and a ''royal'' incision (Mommaerts et al, 1997b). The osteotomy line was marked with a small Lindemann bur (Komet, Lemgo, Germany) and carried out using a disposable reciprocating saw (Aesculap AG, Tuttlingen, Germany).…”

“…[34] Similarly, in the oral cavity, the term maxillary degloving applies to the special surgical incisions in maxillary vestibular mucosa and endonasal incisions that give access to the midface. [2] Moreover, gingival degloving term is defined as soft tissue injury, in which full thickness separation of the gingiva from alveolar bone takes place. [3] Likewise, mandibular degloving injury is a traumatic separation of the alveolar mucosa from the mandible in a full thickness manner extending to the inferior border of the mandible.…”

“…As can be expected, the applied shear forces to the mentum and lower lip are responsible for this condition,[1] whereas elective vestibular incisions, which are made in the mandibular anterior area for genioplasty, orthognathic surgeries, and trauma-treatment surgeries make two layer closure of the wound amenable. [2] These incisions are made below the attached gingiva with a cuff of the alveolar mucosa and mentalis muscle attached to the mandible. Furthermore, supplemental lower face bandage after surgery is also recommended.…”

Traumatic degloving injuries of the mandible are rare intraoral soft tissue traumas. A simple review of the medical literature shows that no article up to this date has reported the prevalence of the degloving injuries of the mandible. Moreover, the highest incidence of mandibular degloving injuries is reported in children and young adults. In this article, the author describes the mandibular degloving injury, characterized by the separation of periosteum and soft tissues of the anterior buccal side of the mandible, and the bone suture technique. This article outlines that a correct diagnostic assessment and appropriate treatment plan can reduce the complications after mandibular degloving injuries.

“…A vestibular incision is made away from the attached gingiva, which prevents poor scarring and the formation of adherences with possible associated functional and aesthetic issues. 23 The incision, made between canine and canine or lateral incisor and lateral incisor, is continued with a meticulous dissection between the submucosal glandular tissue and the orbicular muscle, identifying and preserving all the small sensitive branches of the mental nerve that run through this region.…”

Background: Of the primary procedures associated with facial gender confirmation surgery, those involving the mentomandibular complex have received the least attention in the literature. Methods: The authors present their experience with 837 trans feminine patients operated on for facial gender confirmation surgery who underwent mandibular bone contouring procedures, including bone contouring, chin and mandibular body and angle ostectomies, and osteotomies to reposition the chin. The authors describe the surgical techniques and materials used, and present a customized lower border–supported cutting guide designed by their team and used with 205 patients. A femininity perception score was calculated preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively, and satisfaction with the results was measured 12 months postoperatively. Results: The postoperative follow-up ranged from 12 to 110 months. The mean femininity perception score increased from 47.86 preoperatively to 76.41 at 12 months postoperatively (p < 0.001). No emergency surgical operations were required. In no case was there any permanent damage to the mental or inferior dental nerve. The reoperation percentage because of problems detected during the postoperative period was 2.63 percent (22 patients). Conclusions: With facial gender confirmation surgery of the jawline and chin, it is possible to modify the transverse and vertical components of the jaw; soften the gonial angles; change the format, bone volume, and position of the chin; and harmonize the entire mandibular line. The facial feminization achieved high satisfaction scores regarding the results and feminine gender appearance 12 months after surgery. The future of mandibular bone contouring techniques includes planning with virtual software and surgical support with patient-specific cutting guides.
