“…In all cases, precision ostectomy has been performed using a piezotome with bone cutting tips. The piezotome was demonstrated to be an effective surgical tool that allows for accurate bone cutting with reduced risk of hemorrhage and damage to surrounding soft tissues and neurovascular structures (6,19,20). The piezotome is an innovative surgical instrument that uses high frequency (25-35 kHz) vibration of a metallic tip to selectively cut bone while sparing neurovascular structures and soft tissues (19).…”

“…The piezotome is an innovative surgical instrument that uses high frequency (25-35 kHz) vibration of a metallic tip to selectively cut bone while sparing neurovascular structures and soft tissues (19). Use of a piezosurgical unit also results in more rapid healing (19,20). The piezotome can also be used to perform osteoplasty with specialized bone surgery tips that allow for smooth shaping and contouring of bone margins.…”

“…Many authors observed that restoration of MIO and prevention of re-ankylosis depend mainly on radical resection of the ankylotic mass, aggressive postoperative physiotherapy, and good patient's cooperation with regular follow-up, regardless the selected surgical technique. (11,(24)(25)(26) The ideal width of the gap arthroplasty remains controversial. Many authors stated that to prevent re-ankylosis, aggressive bone removal of at least 1.5 cm is required.…”
