Minimally Invasive Aesthetic and Functional Jaw Surgery - State of the Art

Explore a 28-minute talk by Stanford University's Dr. Sabine Girod on minimally invasive aesthetic and functional jaw surgery. Delve into the latest advancements in facial growth stimulation and orthodontic treatment acceleration through minimally invasive procedures, potentially eliminating the need for traditional jaw surgery. Discover the current state-of-the-art techniques in jaw surgery, including bilateral sagittal split mandible (BSSO) and Le Fort I osteotomy. Learn about plate fixation, postoperative protocols, and surgical interventions for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Gain insights into methods for achieving aesthetic facial and functional dental changes, such as palatal expansion and orthodontic distraction. Understand how these innovative approaches can benefit patients with imbalanced facial appearances, dental and orthodontic issues, and sleep and breathing disturbances.
