Interpositional osteotomy for posterior mandible ridge augmentation.

30 Oct 2009 This report reviewed the published data concerning different methods for vertical augmentation of the posterior mandible for implant placement. The main purpose was to compare and contrast the different treatment methods, with a more detailed review ... Read more...

Lateral lip-splitting approach for total and subtotal maxillectomy.

30 May 2009 PURPOSE: This study reviewed our patients who underwent maxillectomy by the lateral lip-splitting approach and evaluated postoperative outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-six patients with diseases in the maxilla, maxillary gingiva, and hard ... Read more...

Greater superficial petrosal nerve dissection: back to front or front to back?

29 Apr 2009 OBJECTIVE: To introduce a novel surgical technique for the dissection of the greater superficial petrosal nerve (GSPN) in the middle fossa approach. METHODS: Interdural temporal elevation was performed with a front-to-back technique to preserve the ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Mandibular Nerve'

Definition: A branch of the trigeminal (5th cranial) nerve. The mandibular nerve carries motor fibers to the muscles of mastication and sensory fibers to the teeth and gingivae, the face in the region of the mandible, and parts of the dura.
