Abstract

Considering the relatively high risk of nerve damage during the sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO), the purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) canal in relation to key osteotomy sites of SSRO using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). We then correlated these measures with degree of mandibular prognathism as determined by cephalometric tracings.
