Biomechanıcal evaluatıon of hybrid fixatıon method of sagittal split ramus osteotomy in mandibular advancement

Sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) is one of the most common methods for the treatment of the congenital and developmental deformities of mandible (Wolford et al., 2000). The most important advantages of the technique are its potential for higher recovery rates and its being a relatively easy surgical technique to perform (Olivera et al., 2012; Ghang et al., 2013). However, stability issues of the segments being positioned during the surgery and the risk of skeletal relapses are problems that may occur postoperatively (Brasileiro et al., 2012; Sato et al., 2014).
