Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Objectives: This study compared the skeletal stability and pharyngeal airway changes after mandibular setback procedure using the titanium and resorbable plate and screws fixation. Materials and Methods: 28 patients with mandibular prognathism being treated with bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) were randomly selected from titanium and resorbable fixations. Analyses of lateral cephalometric x-rays were performed according to preoperative (T0), 1st week post-surgery (T1), 3-6 months post-surgery (T2) and 1-year post-surgery (T3). The horizontal measurement (BX), vertical measurement (BY), and angle measurement (SNB and Mandibular Plane Angle; MPA) were studied for skeletal stability. The pharyngeal airway changes were observed by …
