“…The anterior cerebral fossa/nasal cavity junction was then obliterated using bilateral pedicled periosteal flaps. Six internal distraction devices (NAVID system; Medical U&A, Osaka, Japan) were placed 5,6 : 2 supraorbital bandeau, 2 cranial (2D type), and 2 malar (type Z'gok). After 1 week of a latency period, distraction was started at a rate of 1 mm/d until his esthetic profile improved.…”

And the personalized splints were made according to the maxillary molar area to ensure precise contact with the maxillary dentition during the operation; the adjustable design of the 2 ends of the annular lower arm ensures that the combination of the personalized splints and forceps can adapt to the arch width of the maxillary molar area of different patients. In our preliminary study, none of the 3 patients complained of hard palate discomfort, and we observed no damage to the hard palate mucosa postoperatively.Overall, the novel forceps we invented can accurately and steadily clamp the maxillary molar area on the premise of protecting the hard palate mucosa from loss of palatal vascularity and pressure necrosis, and then thoroughly mobilize the maxilla. Therefore, we suggest that the novel forceps can be mass-produced for clinical use.
