Resective osseous surgery is a procedure to modify osseous support either by reshaping the alveolar bone to achieve physiologic form without removal of supporting bone (osteoplasty) and by the removal of some alveolar bone (ostectomy). The aim of this study is to analyse the prevalence of resective osseous surgical procedures performed in the outpatient department of Saveetha dental college and hospitals. Overall, 100 case sheets were reviewed which were dated between June 2019 to March 2020. The data was collected by the patient records of a dental college hospital. From this study, we observed that resective osseous surgical techniques were done in 60% of male patients and in 40% of female patients and the most frequent technique performed was osteoplasty which was 68% Within the limits of this study, the most common techniques used were osteoplasty and frequent anatomical site was upper first molar and male patients underwent more resective osseous surgery than that of females.
