The mandibular inferior border split: A modification in the sagittal split osteotomy

Comparison of Transverse Mandibular Anatomy in Class Iii Patients With and Without Cleft Lip and Palate

“…Andrade et al (2015) ( 19 ) and Wolford & Davis (1990) ( 16 ) highlighted the importance of understanding the anatomy of the mandibular region, which can determine areas of least resistance and the fracture path during OSRM. In Plooij et al's 20 ) study, 51% of fractures occurred as described by Hunsuck, while 33% occurred through the mandibular canal, and 16% followed other patterns.…”

The Short Split Method: A Solid Alternative to Classical Sagittal Split Osteotomy in Orthognathic Surgery: A Case Report

“…Wolford introduced a mandibular inferior border split modification to enhance surgical precision and reduce nerve‐related complications, consistent with the SSSO approach [14]. Posnick emphasised meticulous osteotomy planning to avoid nerve injury, reinforcing this potential benefit [9].…”

Sixty Years of Innovation in Biomechanical Orthognathic Surgery: The State of the Art and Future Directions

“…In 1977, Bell and Schendel developed the first biologic rationale for modifying the sagittal ramus split operation by minimally detached the mucoperiosteum and pterygomasseteric sling from the proximal segment, significantly reducing intraosseous ischemia and necrosis [97]. Wolford and Davis introduced the concept of the inferior border split in 1990, making the IAN less common in the proximal segment, where the nerve is more susceptible to trauma due to tension, poor visualization, and separation of the nerve from the canal [98]. Piezoelectric surgical medical devices allow efficient cutting of mineralized hard tissue with minimal trauma to soft tissue.…”
