“…51,52 According to many surgeons, tension produced by the elongated and stretched suprahyoid muscles and associated connective tissues is the primary cause for postsurgical instability following mandibular advancement surgery. 51,52,[55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68] The potential promise of DO is that because the lengthening of the mandible occurs slowly, the soft tissue stretch associated with lengthening can be more readily accommodated by the masticatory system. This, theoretically, would allow a sooner return to homeostasis between the stretched soft tissues and the advanced mandible, with the possibility of achieving a more stable result.…”

“…[123] Patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea are reported to have narrowing of the airway and a low hyoid bone position. [4] The close relationship between the pharynx and the hyoid bone justifies orthodontic interest to study the interactions, which may occur between them.…”

Introduction:The hyoid bone and its relation with the pharyngeal space in health and disease has been an intriguing subject for years.Aim:This study attempts to evaluate the hyoid bone position and to ascertain any correlations with pharyngeal airway space in skeletal class I, II, and III malocclusions.Materials and Methods:McNamara's airway analysis was carried out to assess the upper and lower airway widths and Hyoid triangle analysis by Bibby and Preston was carried out to determine the position of the hyoid bone.Conclusion:A positive correlation was found between the lower airway and horizontal distance from the hyoid bone to the retrognathion in class I skeletal pattern with average growth pattern.

This study was to describe the use of inverted-L osteotomy of ramus and iliac bone graft for the management of mandibular deficiency in adult patients. From 2008 to 2010, 11 patients (aged 19 to 29 years) with mandibular deficiency underwent intraoral or extraoral inverted-L osteotomy of ramus and iliac crest bone grafting. Data were collected from the patients' records, photographs and radiographs. The height and width of the ramus were successfully expanded by inverted-L osteotomy and iliac crest bone grafting with minimal complications in all patients, resulting in significant improvement in occlusion and facial appearance. Our early results showed that the inverted-L osteotomy of ramus and iliac crest bone grafting is safe and effective, and should be considered as a good alternative for the patients with mandibular deficiency.
