“…The visibility of the inferior alveolar nerve and canal is diminished in extraoral approach which also makes it a relatively bad option to deal with deeply placed or inferiorly placed lesion of mandible. 4,6 The is relatively more control of the surgical field in cases of SSO cause various modifications of the SSO can be used which have been described in recent past. 4,11,13 The lingual approach has more complications which might lead to lingual paraesthesia if the plane is not kept subperiosteally.…”

“…These are rarely symptomatic and are associated with pain in the region where these are present. 4,5 The proximity of the IAN has been always been a relative contraindication in removal of any lesion which remains constant with life with no secondary changes. 3,6 The access to the various pathologies which are located deep in the angle of mandible and in close proximity with the inferior alveolar nerve could be easily accessed by using sagittal split osteotomy of mandible as reported earlier by various authors 7,8…”

Sagittal split osteotomy has been used to address skeletal deformities involving the mandible. The versatility of the procedure has already been established in the past. This modality has rarely been used as access osteotomy. This article reviews the usage of sagittal split osteotomy for access to various benign pathologies which mainly involves the posterior mandible. The article also discusses various modalities which are used in order to address deeply seated pathologies. The various indications and anatomic consideration for using sagittal split osteotomy along with the advantages of this procedure over other procedures have been discussed.

“…Benign aggressive lesions of the mandible have traditionally been treated with resection and bone graft reconstruction [ 181. Recently, orthognathic surgery techniques have become more common in treating benign lesions of the jaws [19,20]. Progel evaluated criteria to carry out rim or marginal resections for some malignant tumors of the alveolus and preserve mandibular continuity using orthognathic surgery techniques [2 11.…”

Based on clinical impressions and subjective reports by patients, it is generally accepted that a loss of mandibular continuity will result in decreased masticatory function while preserving continuity will result in maintenance of masticatory function. Surprisingly, there is a paucity of well controlled studies objectively evaluating masticatory function to support these statements. The purpose of this study was to objectively evaluate masticatory function in a patient who underwent surgical resection for cure of a tonsillar carcinoma where a lateral mandibulotomy was used. Masticatory performance and swallowing threshold were assessed using a 0.5 gm frito as the test food substance and a sieve analysis. The subject was evaluated pre and post surgery and post prosthetic rehabilitation. When compared with pre surgery function, masticatory function and swallowing threshold were maintained and enhanced with prosthetic treatment 1 year post surgery. Maintenance of mandibular continuity did have functional merit for the subject studied.

“…Removal of osteomas is not generally necessary. Surgery is indicated only when the lesion is symptomatic or actively growing [16,17]. In our opinion, the surgical approach should be specific for cases.…”

Osteoma is a benign asymptomatic osseous tumor. Characterization of osteoma is the proliferation of cancellous or compact bone that increases in size by continuous formation of bone. It can be seen in any craniofacial structures, usually in paranasal sinuses and jaws. In this study, we present a 17-year-old male patient with a giant osteoma in the mandibular condyle. Posttreatment post-op follow-up, post-ortho, and orthognathic surgery after dental implantation are described.
