Abstract
The loss of mandibular molars can result in a maxillary dentoalveolar extrusion, leading to an insufficient interarch space. In severe cases, this space must be regained before the prosthetic reconstruction of the opposite edentulous area. The posterior maxillary segmental osteotomy (PMSO) is a simple but precision technique to manage this problem; without which one can achieve a good surgical outcome but a poor final occlusion. The purpose of this paper was to present a case of PMSO for mandibular implant placement and to discuss the important steps.
